Somewhere in a distant twilight
You can find me on a rooftop
Perched like a bird without a home
Although I won't be singing
Instead, just reminiscing
Conversations in your bedroom
Those nights have come to pass
Now he fills that space beside you
Hope at last defines you
Nicotine whispers to my brain
As I resist the thought of your name
In cold moonlight I remain
Mind led back to distant days
My masonry perch becomes so lonesome
Twinkling stars my only console
In this dark, I do not sing
For my heart only beats when reminiscing

Somewhere in a distant twilight
You can find me on a rooftop
Perched like a bird without a home
Although I won't be singing
Instead, just reminiscing
Conversations in your bedroom
Those nights have come to pass
Now he fills that space beside you
Hope at last defines you
Nicotine whispers to my brain
As I resist the thought of your name
In cold moonlight I remain
Mind led back to distant days
My masonry perch becomes so lonesome
Twinkling stars my only console
In this dark, I do not sing
For my heart only beats when reminiscing
