Not Lost in You

by Michèle Raffaele

Genre: Folk/Acoustic

Lyrics

You smile and pour us both Merlot
‘til one glass seems to overflow
I loosen the velvet ribbon
Admiring the card you’ve written
I must say, but do not know how to
I am not yours, not lost in you

You are a welcome interlude
You taunt and tease my solitude
I’d like to share my crescent moons
My sunny summer afternoons
with you, but no I am you see
Not lost although I long to be

CHORUS:

I am not yours, not lost in you
Not lost in you

Little white lies may turn to black
So take your scented roses back
This glistening sapphire too
I yearn for mauve, not red and blue
So please let me be forsaken soon
Lost as a candle lit at noon

CHORUS

Below a limpid winter sky
One last reply, one last goodbye
Look up you might see me falling
Spiraling, floating, embracing
My crystallized identity
Lost as a snowflake in the sea

CHORUS
