Emmy The Great - War lyrics

The dream that I have is always the same
A foot falls like an echo of
A step I didn't take and I see you coming in
Like you were never gone
Tell me, why did I wake?
Here in the world I was hiding from
They are expecting it to rain

They say that the winter clears the drains
That time heals all things
And they said that the thought
Of you would fade well I see nothing change

And the dream that I have breaks
Just like the day i walk along the shore
I take a picture of the waves
And then I throw it to the floor
I say, why did I wake?
Here in the world there is
Nothing more than your absence

Now the sky is turning grey
Now the birds have left the bay
Now time is shrinking and they
Said that the thought of you would fade
Well I don't feel that way

Hey, do you remember me the way
That I remember you?
In every movement of the waves
So they replaced the train
And all the people went away
And I feel nothing
They say the winter clears the drains
Well I dream nightly of sunshine
