Long Nights in Empty Beds

from After All These Years by Galleries

/

lyrics

Waking to my own thoughts and the sheets still untucked.
I slept alone on my side of the bed
I reached across to try and feel you there
But it was cold and the blankets were left
With the creases that your body formed on them

Woah

It's getting harder and harder just to stand on two feet.
My hands are sore and my bones
My bones are weak
Weighing down on me
I can feel my spine
Begin to bend and break
Like the ocean tide
Wave after wave will come
Dragging me back to where I started from

I wrote myself a note
To never let you down
And all I did was fall
Under a weighted crown
I built my towers high
And my foundations deep
I couldn't take your hand
I couldn't fucking reach

(I couldn't fucking reach)

I had to let you go to find your happiness
I had to let you go and hope that you'd come back.
