Lyrics for Your Melody

What came back, unedited

[Verse 1] Your voice comes in late through the static tonight Three hours behind where I'm standing I'm holding the phone like it's holding your hand And the silence keeps softly expanding [Verse 2] There's frost on the window, the kettle's gone cold Your coat's on the chair where you left it I talk to the dark like you're still in the room And I swear that the dark almost gets it [Chorus] Oh, I'd cross every mile of this ocean If the water would carry me through I'd follow the moon to the morning If the morning would lead me to you But the sky's just a wide empty doorway And the stars only know how to burn So I'm leaving a light in the hallway For the night that you finally return [Verse 3] You tell me the rain fell for hours where you are I tell you it's been dry here for days now It's funny how love learns to live in the gap Between what we feel and what we say now [Chorus] Oh, I'd cross every mile of this ocean If the water would carry me through I'd follow the moon to the morning If the morning would lead me to you But the sky's just a wide empty doorway And the stars only know how to burn So I'm leaving a light in the hallway For the night that you finally return [Bridge] Count down the days On a map on the wall Pin by pin by pin Till there's nowhere to fall [Chorus] Oh, I'll wait at the edge of this ocean Where the water runs out of its blue I'll stand in the dark till the morning And the morning will lead me to you 'Cause the sky's just a wide empty doorway And the stars only know how to burn But I'm leaving a light in the hallway For the night that you finally return [Outro] For the night For the night that you finally return
