The Rooms of Heaven


(I cut out the chorus)

Hey! Hey! Hey!
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you, my dear
The stairs creak as you sleep, it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes

And some days I can't even trust myself
It's killing me to see you this way

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore


There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will be over and buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love.

Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear

You're gone, gone, gone away
I watched you disappear
All that's left is the ghost of you.
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart,
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go we'll meet again soon
Now wait, wait, wait for me
Please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep

~

The next room over,
doesn't seem so far away these days
I see you everywhere
in everything
hear you in the faintest whisper
There's never been a need to yell

Today I miss you.
Yesterday you were here
and tomorrow
this will all seem like a long ago
memory

And one day
it will all make sense

Until then
I can only pray
Hoping that you hear me.
