I found your coat on the kitchen chair
A thread unraveled
Like time laid bare
The scent of coffee
Stale in the air
Your favorite mug still sitting there
Did you mean to leave so much behind?
Or did it just slip your mind?
The light you left behind
It burns
It blinds
It haunts these walls
It rewinds
Rewinds
Every step I take
It pulls
It binds-
The light you left behind
The floorboards creak like they call your name
A whisper soft
But it feels the same
The clock hands turn
But the hour won't change
This house is full
Yet somehow strange
Do you hear me in the quiet night?
Or are you far from my sight?
The light you left behind
It burns
It blinds
It haunts these walls
It rewinds
Rewinds
Every step I take
It pulls
It binds-
The light you left behind
