I’m waking up just to re-read your letter
But your words haven’t heard about us
I search for a clue I don’t know what I’m reading
No message is coming across
Close up I can’t make out the distance
Between you and the flowers you brought
The tap on the sink in the room where I’m resting
Is counting the time that’s been lost
Your towel is soft but my heart is as cold
As the night building up outside
I feel your warmth on the edge of my bed
But I can’t light that flame in your eyes
Deep down I think that I’m grateful
Deep down, we’re ok
Make sure you don’t take close for an answer
I might be out of here any day
Close up I can’t make out the distance
Between your words and the message you send
Close up I can’t tell for certain
But it feels just like losing a friend
