lyrics

When the rooster crows at the break of dawn will you wrap your arms tighter around me?
I've not slept a wink, all I've done is dreamt a memory to keep what you've allowed me
On a foreign roof a thousand miles away I laid with you, it started
In the ends of trials, with the jury hung, we moved on, our sentences uncharted

I know nothing of this land
All I've ever been is blind
Everything I see around me is nameless
I feel ashamed and terrified
but I can't live if not to try
For to toil or to dive, there's consequences

In the spaces that I've traded, storms and lessons I've evaded, time has put a lot of sorrow on my head
In the spaces above cities that I've loved and shared with you I will keep the words that didn't go unsaid
