Cold Sheets

You left the door half open
Like you wanted me to follow
Your sweater still on my pillow
Smells like last December snow

I wasn’t sure if you’d come back
I wasn’t sure if I should go

You said nothing, but I heard it
(Heard it)
In the silence between your steps
(Your steps)

Now I sleep on cold sheets
Dreaming of your bare feet
Walking through my memories
Like you still belong to me

The candlelight still flickers
Like your touch on my spine
Your voice plays through my fingers
When I reach for you at night

You were always almost mine
Always fading, out of time

You said nothing, but I felt it
(Felt it)
Like a shadow that won’t rest
(Won’t rest)

Now I sleep on cold sheets
Trapped in old heartbeats
Breathing in your memory
Like you still belong to me

I don’t change the bed
You might still return
Still warm in the places
Where I swore you’d never burn
