Lyrics

Letters to You
Lunarity

Brave the darkness to stare in the flames,
find you sitting in front of the fire,
looking more beautiful than the day you said goodbye.

An undying love, held so close,
living, breathing the memories,
I catch your eye but you slowly turn away.

Back to my room, staring at walls,
on padded feet wandering halls,
another sleepless night spent wondering what to say.

When I catch you watching me watching you,
rewriting letters never sent through.
An unsigned collection of unspoken love,
letters to you.

Wondering why I’m still shut up here,
not like there’s nothing better to do,
worlds to save, evil to overcome.

Tell myself first I have to heal,
stop paying for the wonder of having loved you,
and a hundred other reasons for not doing a thing.

But sit here watching you watching me,
singing of things never meant to be.
Another leaf in this volume of love,
letters from you.

Gazing down from high above,
running free in the morning dawn,
watching from the shadows hidden in the leaves.

Waiting, living for just a chance,
to catch even the briefest glance,
of the light that is the lifeblood of my soul.

Watching you watching me,
with emerald eyes burned into my dreams,
Singing songs of undying love,
letters to you,
letters to you.

Brave the darkness to warm by the fire,
looking for your face in the flames,
wondering what I'll say if I ever see you again?
