lyrics

A clear sky tonight
The trees shape the light
I'm writing again about you
A lifetime ago we played house
Built a home
I may never know how much was true

So tell me you don't even miss me tonight
That's the bitterest thought I can bear
Tell me again, then let it rain
Color the air

I'm filling this room with my voice and a tune
I may never know how much you hear
With words paradoxically caught in my throat
I may never know when you came clear

So tell me you don't even want me tonight
That's the bitterest thought I can bear
Tell me again, then let it rain
Color the air

Sweet talk
By the fires we walked
I remember the heat
You remember the cold
Windblown
All the women I've known
Have been easy to love
But harder to hold

So tell me you don't even want me tonight
That's the bitterest thought I can bear
Tell me again, then let it rain
Color the air
