The room is quiet, louder than before Your jacket’s still hanging by the door I count the cracks along the wall Every night I wait for a call Your name is frozen on my tongue I still hear echoes when I run Through every street, through every dream Wondering where you might have been I’m calling out into the dark Tracing stars, looking for a spark Every breath is breaking me But love won’t let me set you free If you can hear me where you are Know I’m holding on to who you are A shadow moved outside today For a second, hope got in my way Someone said they saw your face A blur of time, a different place I read the signs, I read them twice Your favorite song on late-night radio lights A feather on the window sill My heart says “stay”, my fear says “still” I’m calling out into the dark Tracing stars, looking for a spark Every breath is breaking me But love won’t let me set you free If you can hear me where you are Know I’m holding on to who you are The phone rings once, my hands don’t move Every truth I’m scared to lose A voice says words I barely hear But suddenly the world is clear You’re breathing, you’re alive somehow I fall to my knees, right here, right now All this pain, all this time Explodes inside this heart of mine I’m calling out into the light Every wrong has turned to right I was breaking endlessly Now hope is rushing back to me If you can hear me where you are I’m already running where you are I don’t need answers, I don’t need blame I don’t care how, I don’t care when Every road leads back to you Every broken prayer came true I’ll hold you close, I won’t let go Just thankful you’re coming home No more silence, no more fear You’re alive — and you’re almost here
