The words that day were few, it's true But fragility hides in the silence too When the city sounds change their beat I modulate my key to where we meet Pretending "Goodbye" is a word I don't know Repeating "See you later" soft and low But my heart keeps playing the show When things are left unfinished Even mistakes look beautiful The rust I cannot fix or clean Holds the center of my soul I take your name so slowly And turn it into sound Quietly around Unfinished love song Spilling my breath before the chorus comes Spinning on the edge of your world Like broken drums I cannot end it now Can't go back to the start somehow But still, I sing of you With sounds that lack the truth of you An unfinished love song Shining for a heart that’s no longer there The better I get at lying "I’m okay" The smaller I become, day by day But even so, I still choose you Unfinished love song Not written to write the end But so you can go far away Just as you are, my friend I’ll stay right here as I am Waiting on and on Never to be finished That is the shape Of my love Unfinished love song The chorus returns again and again To try and forget you I write you with my pen Light leaking from the lines I can't erase Maybe that’s the final space The period to my love’s chase
