Aubade Lyrics

I walked into a darkened room

And found you in the corner waiting

Deciphering the stars

But lost amongst the laughs

You vanished through the smoke of a memory

As December nights grow cold

I surrender the songs that kept your kisses whole

How our love disappears

There is smoke in your tears

And the fire has already burnt out

It always goes the same way

You offer me love

I push it away

When I come back it's too late

There are words that still remain

We were a tangle of naked bones

I wanted you close

But knew you'd leave me

Like a cheap perfume

Was I there to diffuse

The lonely truth of your evenings

Sang countless songs

To empty rooms

In hope you might be listening

There was no emotion in your eyes

But I needed to know what was missing

It always goes the same way

You offer me love

I push it away

When I come back it's too late

There are words that still remain
