When I Wake Lyrics

It's strange to say these days

You haven't occupied my mind

I guess it's true, the most important thing that heals is time

'Cause here we're sitting basking in the sun waiting for spring

And I feel the sense of a new beginning

We're benching in the park

Discussing plans to fly to Spain

The colors that surround me there are bright orange and green

I feel it all and even catch the taste of jalapenos in my mouth

Oh, I can't wait to head down south

Oh

And though it's been a while

I still think of you some mornings when I wake

This is my biggest heartbreak

You visit me in numbers and in strangers that I meet

A curly haired boy sitting in the train opposite me

The way he speaks your language with the same intensity

I have to say it kinda triggers me

Your house is a museum but its doors are closed to me

A sanctuary painted white and adorned with lilies

Did you keep the tile I gave you, is it hanging on your wall?

Is it only the bad times that you recall?

Oh

And though it's been a while

I still think of you some mornings when I wake

This is my biggest heartbreak

And I

Won't forget what you gave to me

All the things that you made me see

How you dug the earth for me

Sometimes things don't work out the way you wanted them to be

You meet the perfect partner but it feels not meant to be

But I assure you if I could have picked my destiny

For sure I would have chosen it to be

You and me
