Pull You Close

(album: Invocations / Conversations - 2019)

Though I heard your song in passing
It sounded everlasting
The rise and fall, the tension and release
Only heard it for a moment
When you'd left I hardly noticed
Still the thought will bring me to my knees

But if I had you to myself
I'd never be alone
If I had you for myself
I'd never let you go

Pull you close
Until we both cave in
I'll put it all on my shoulders
Take it over and over
Slowly like
The stars release their light
I'd wait forever till every spark has burned
If love would then return

Wait
The streets were all renamed
The things we wanted changed
Our neighborhood will never feel the same
Hope
Hope is such a gift
Until it don't exist
The letting go
The curse of memory

But if I had you to myself
I'd never be alone
If I had you for myself
I'd never let you go

Pull you close
Until we both cave in
I'll put it all on my shoulders
Take it over and over
Slowly like
The stars release their light
I'd wait forever till every spark has burned
If love would then return

Endless nights
Wasted days
Thrown away
Still I

Pull you close
Until we both cave in
I'll put it all on my shoulders
Take it over and over
Slowly like
The stars release their light
I'd wait forever till every spark has burned
If love would then return
I'd let it all surround me
