Simple Song from Not Yet by Lila Blue

I sing to empty rooms
Praying you’re inside them
I open each window and door
Though you don’t come, it lets the light in

And as the light dies
The night always comes
And I am alone

I was scared to bury or bore you
And now to most it wouldn’t matter much
But now that you have gone
I still wonder what made you flee my touch

When I do sleep
I do not dream anymore

I wail into the walls of the house we built
Only the spiders move
I’ve become stone I’ve become still
And still I don’t blame you
No I’d never blame you
And I never will

I’ve learned to live alone
And I’ve learned to lose you
But no matter how hard I try
I hope you’ll find me worth coming back to

I turn the porch light on
And sing my simple song
And I just wait
