Flicker of Maybe

Cold tea on a wooden table

Watching the shadows crawl on the wall

I tell myself that I am stable

But the silence is ten feet tall (hmmm)

Oh, the hours stretch like highways

Through a city built for two

And I'm walking all the sideways

Just to keep from feeling blue (yeah)

Another dinner

for one in the kitchen

Listening to the hum of the fridge

Wondering if there is someone missing

To walk with me across this bridge

But the lock is turning

A sudden rush of light

Everything is turning

No longer lost in the night

Then I look up and see you standing there

And the room comes alive

No more lonely streets,

no more empty air

With you, I

survive
