[Verse] In your absence I toss I turn I fall Life's flavor fades it tastes so small Moments of us feel too good too rare Like a whisper of wind that vanishes in air [Prechorus] You keep slipping away like water Like time Through cracks in my hands No rhythm No rhyme [Chorus] Why can’t you be close to me Why can’t you stay endlessly Happy with me Happy with me You’re the thread and I’m unraveling [Verse 2] Your shadow lingers but it won't speak The clock keeps ticking but the future feels bleak I’m chasing echoes I’m chasing ghosts You're the fire and I’m the smoke [Prechorus] You keep slipping away like stars from the sky Falling out of reach no matter how I try [Chorus] Why can’t you be close to me Why can’t you stay endlessly Happy with me Happy with me You’re the thread and I’m unraveling
