Silent Storm
Does the sky fall in blue drips where you are?
'Cause out here in this storm I can only see so far
You'd think I'd be lonely, but I'm flooded with these dreams
These dreams that never stop, of me and you, so it seems
That we're perfect and together and it's love from the start
But from your small-talk, I know you've never heard my heart
Blue atmospheres turn so clear when you're standing near
Miles away, I still know that voice, sweet mumbles I hear
The rain, how it thunders! The lightning, how it strikes
Down my skin, down my breath, down the heartbeat spikes
Sweeter now, sweetly, the electricity dies to a spark
Barely lighting the night, dreamy navies in the dark
The storm is now calmer, yet my love for you roars, but
You can only hear a whisper, behind oblivious closed doors
If you can hear me, then speak to me, if not, let it be the day
Even if you never love me, I'll love you anyway
The storm, how it dies, the wind left with no rain
Hear it call to me softly, stroking 'gaint the windowpane
Where you are, the sky never fell in drips of blue
It never will, but I'll call you mine, though I never had you
