Standing Here

Open up the hands that hold me still
I would speak into the day if I had my say,
Shipwrecked and the candles fluttering
Puts a light upon your face, deliberately placed

And I cannot be standing here
I will burn much brighter than this

Once upon a time we used to laugh
Now the reality of the scene
You hardly speak and never sing,
Who can say it clearer than this? We are almost done

And I cannot be standing here
I will burn much brighter than this

Sunlight dances underneath the sea
Who will lie between the sheets of this lover’s heart where angels meet?
I can hear the world a-crashing down
Watch it as it tumbles from the sky into the ground

And I cannot be standing here
I will burn much brighter than this
