My Universe

I walk alone from the East River to my home

I take a chance on this romance with myself

I'm on my own all the time

Now that you've left my universe

I hear a voice calling me toward the neon lights

I know you're there behind the door

Stars, please, send me a sign

I need more to keep walking on

Joy feels impossible, laughter is rare

All I've got in abundance is desire

I'll try to send it right into my hands

The ivory will start a new fire

I'm almost home

The trip was longer than expected

But I know now a song lingers inside

Perhaps this heartache of mine

Is already my new universe

Joy feels impossible, laughter is rare

All I've got in abundance is desire

I'll try to send it right into my hands

The ivory will start a new fire

I'm almost home

The trip was longer than expected

But I know now a song lingers inside

Perhaps this heartache of mine

Is already my new universe
