Shea & Tobias - If You Were Gone

I had a dream last night
There was a hole in the ocean floor
And I filled it up with bottles and blankets and heavy sand
But the waves were too strong
And I watched them wash away
And I asked myself
What if you were gone?
What if I woke up and I was all alone
And I walked the spiral stairs on my own
And everything that’s left
Somehow feels less real
What if I was sinking
And you were just beneath
And every passing second pulled you further out of reach
And you kept slipping faster
And you couldn’t hear me call
What if I could never save you at all?
And I’d be remembering with every step I take
Hoping and wishing that there was some mistake
It was so dark
It was so wrong
And I asked myself
What if you were gone?
And I’m looking for you still in everything I do
I’m waiting for the night
When I’m not haunted by the sound of you slipping out of sight
And I wonder if it’s true
Will I ever run out of ways to remember you?
What if you were gone
And I could barely breathe
And nothing could fill up the space of where you used to be
What if this was real
This never-ending fall
What if you were never really here at all?
I had a dream last night
There was a hole in the ocean floor
