[Intro - sparse pads, no drums, slow fade in] Mmm... [silence 2 bars] Somewhere in the silence... I can feel you breathing [silence 1 bar] Somewhere in the distance... you are still believing [Verse 1 - drums enter softly] I tried to hold the pieces but they fall like winter light [breath] You were always fading just beyond my sight [short pause] I keep the door unlocked for you I leave the window open wide [silence 1 bar] But you were never coming home... you were always running [Pre-Chorus - build, pads rising] And I would carry you through every storm that breaks [breath] I would shelter you from everything... that aches [Chorus - melodic drop, full sound] I would hide you from the cold and from the pain I would find you in the silence and the rain [silence half bar] I would hold you like the tide holds to the shore [pause] I would give you... everything I have and more [Break - all drops away, pads only, hypnotic] Ohhh... [silence 4 bars] ...ohhh [silence 2 bars] [Verse 2 - stripped back, intimate] The echoes of your laughter still live inside these walls [breath] I built a world around you now I walk the empty halls [short pause] I keep the light on just in case I keep your memory alive [silence 1 bar] But darling... love was never meant to be something we just survive [Pre-Chorus] And I would carry you through every storm that breaks [breath] I would shelter you from everything... that aches [Chorus - full drop again] I would hide you from the cold and from the pain I would find you in the silence and the rain [silence half bar] I would hold you like the tide holds to the shore [pause] I would give you... everything I have and more [Outro - long melodic fadeout, pads dissolving slowly] I would hide you... [silence 2 bars] I would find you... [silence 3 bars] Ohhh... [fade to silence]
