Rust and Blue (Duet Version)

[INTRO] I still catch your shape in the curtains’ sway, Like the night forgot to take you away. Coffee’s cold, the clock won’t move— I talk to ghosts just to think of you. [VERSE 1] Think of me when the moon’s hanging low, When the streets are washed in silver snow. I’d beg you soft through the darkened glass— If time turned kind, I’d never ask. [PRE-CHORUS] The world’s been gentle, cruelly so, Too fair to me for letting go. I dream in rust, in shades of blue, And every dream still ends in you. [CHORUS 1] I don’t need a reason why— Just your name to pass the time. Every silence pulls me through, And all I ever wanted… was you. [VERSE 2] I pace the floor, our ghosts move too, They float through the places you used to, It’s just so hard believing it’s true, That you've gone to a place I can't be with you. The lines I said keep bleeding through, Like ink that won’t stop staining you. I’d tear the night apart in two— If it meant I could start again with you. [CHORUS 2] You were the calm I couldn’t keep, The voice that haunts when I try to sleep. No matter what the daylight knew— All I ever wanted… was you. [BRIDGE] If I could chase the dawn back to the start, Would you still pull me into the dark? Maybe love was the slow decay— And maybe I was meant to fade that way. All I ever wanted was you… And the ache that made it true. All I ever wanted was you, All I ever wanted… was you. [OUTRO] Maybe love was just a borrowed tune, A quiet hum beneath the ruin. And if I ever find it true— I’ll still be singing back to you.
