[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The lights went out at night
Street signs just disappeared
Your jacket on the chair
Still warm
But you’re not here
I call your name in static
Just breathing in the dark
My hands find empty fabric
My eyes keep chasing sparks
[Chorus]
I’ll never see you again
That’s what the silence said
Your shadow slipped through my hands
Ran where the wild leaves spread
In a fabulous forest
Where I can’t follow you in
I stand on the edge of it all
I’ll never see you again
[Verse 2]
The traffic hum fell quiet
The window turned to glass
I caught our faces in it
Then watched them both walk past
I wait for you to answer
Each echo in the hall
This house grows taller
Stranger
Your picture’s getting small
[Chorus]
I’ll never see you again
That’s what the silence said
Your shadow slipped through my hands
Ran where the wild leaves spread
In a fabulous forest
Where I can’t follow you in
I stand on the edge of it all
I’ll never see you again
[Bridge]
If there’s a path through the pines
If there’s a clearing of light
Send me a rumor of life
One little rustle tonight (oh)
[Chorus]
I’ll never see you again
That’s what the silence said
Your shadow slipped through my hands
Ran where the wild leaves spread
In a fabulous forest
Where I can’t follow you in
I stand on the edge of it all
I’ll never see you again
[Interlude]
Fabulous forest
[Chorus]
I’ll never see you again
That’s what the silence said
Your shadow slipped through my hands
Ran where the wild leaves spread
In a fabulous forest
Where I can’t follow you in
I stand on the edge of it all
I’ll never see you again
[Outro]
