CharFutur - What We Left Behind

Heat
I found your ribbon on the bedroom floor
Right where you dropped it by the open door
The dust is settling in the afternoon light
And I'm still wishing you were here tonight
We built a castle out of summer dreams
But now it's tearing at the very seams
I hear your laughter though the room is still
I guess I always will
Be the sweetest pages that we could find
A cup of coffee that has grown so cold
The beautiful stories that will go untold
I'm holding on to what is already gone
Just waiting for what we left behind
Your favorite sweater sitting on the chair
It holds the memory of your braided hair
I trace the outline of your empty space
I see the kindness of your fading face
We had a love that felt so clean and deep
A secret promise that we could keep
The clock is ticking on mental peace
And I just want some peace
Oh, look at what we left behind
The sweetest pages that we couldn't find
A cup of coffee that has grown so cold
The beautiful stories that will go untold
I'm holding on to what is already gone
Just waiting for the dawn
Oh, look at what we left behind
Heat
Heat
Smile when I look back upon a little while before night
Sorrow runs too deep
You're the dream that I will always keep
No regrets, my love
Just a quiet ache for every single step we didn't take
Look at what we left behind
The sweetest pages that we couldn't find
A cup of coffee that is so cold
The beautiful stories that will go untold
Holding on to what is already gone
Just waiting for the dawn behind a friend
Whisper in your name
What we left behind
