It's You Alone

from Songs 2020 by Derek Spaldo

/

lyrics

I know this face
I've seen you a million times before
I ask for the moon to sit in a balanced house

She was a house of water
How can you know?
I've practiced and I've studied like you would not believe
I have the guts to name you something I can understand

It's you alone I find
It's you alone I long for in the night
As I whisper to the void
It's you alone I cry

I feel you now
You make me a richer man
I'll hold you in my body
I'll keep you here

I'll build myself a house
Of objects that I've found
A refuge for the broken and abandoned chairs
I'll sit beside myself and wonder, "Were you ever there?"

It's you alone I find
It's you alone I long for in the night
As I whisper to the void
It's you alone I cry
