Alfie Sosa - Embers

I'm sitting on the counter
You have dinner on the couch
Our table has been cluttered
With papers and knick-knacks
Sporadic conversations
There ain't much to talk about
Somehow we lost connection
No flint to light this spark
Outside the winter covers
Everything in white
Our fire inside is dying
As we slowly turn the lights
Poking through the embers
Of the fire we let die
Could this be the evening
The last time we say goodnight?
Poking through the embers
In an attempt to find
Something to hold on to
Before the morning comes
The tower lights they blink
Through the window outside
They mark every second
Of this infinite time
I know that you are awake
Staring through the night
I sense it the darkness
Your mind restless as mine
Outside the winter covers
Everything in white
Our fire inside is dying
Memories flicker in the dark
Poking through the embers
Of the fire we let die
Could this be the evening
The last time we say goodnight?
Poking through the embers
In an attempt to find
Something to hold on to
Before the morning comes
Warm light washes in
Coming through the blinds
The black coffee we drink
Is cold as ashes on the ground
And here we go again
Too much left unsaid
The fire will burn out again
Another wasted chance
Poking through the embers
Of the fire we let die
Could this be the evening
The last time we say goodnight
Poking through the embers
In an attempt to find
Something to hold on to
Before the morning comes
Poking through the embers
