lyrics

Sipping on a cup of coffee, planning my words
Daydreams are the perfect sugar for unplanned chords
I let go of sight and let the thoughts pour in
I'll dry my tears, break my heart, let's begin

I'm not ashamed to have felt sweet love
Though I'm leaving it to be renamed by the touch of another lover
Stopped my own heartbeat, took away my comfort
I'll leave you as a memory
I won't see you in the morning

I'll replay that song you used to sing when I was feeling down, when I was feeling low
It goes, dancing in the moonlight
It got me feeling warm and bright, but now I'm stuck feeling cold
I'll tear out your hold
Dry my tears and break my own heart this time by singing

I'm not ashamed to have felt sweet love
Though I'm leaving it to be renamed by the touch of another lover
Stopped my own heartbeat, took away my comfort
I'll leave you as a memory
I won't see you in the morning

Gravity is coming down on me
(Gravity, gravity, gravity)
Silently your fading away into the back of my mind
(Silently, Silently, Silently)
I'm dreaming a soft smile across my face
I'm dreaming of a new beginning

I'm not ashamed to have felt sweet love
Though I'm leaving it to be renamed by the touch of another lover
Stopped my own heartbeat, took away my comfort
I'll leave you as a memory
I won't see you in the morning
