about

Much like many of my songs, this song is about the feeling of missing someone. Although, this someone is not the same someone as some of those other songs.

lyrics

Hours
lost to the morning.
Just to dream of
what distracts me
from the hours in my day.

I don't pretend to
understand it
or expect it
to go my way.
I just lay here
'til the day has passed away.

Linen
heated by my furnace there;
by the post
where you'll never
rest your head.

Could it be that
it's your ghost here
who's been warming
me instead.
Could you stay here
'til the night has passed away.

Ghost who
holds my hands at night,
I wonder
where you go
by the first light of the dawn.

I don't pretend to
need your company,
but I miss you when
you're done.
Yet you're gone still
as the morning moves along.

Yet you leave still as the morning moves along.
