Close - Slow Skies

Hold me close

I weigh down

Heavy heart

A love apart

Hold me close

I follow

A faded you

My love’s see through

I have only gone too far, locked the colours in my heart

Love it only lets me down, turns to water when I drown

I follow a ghost of us in every body that I touch

I’m frozen, if I could see

I’d hold you close enough to me

Oh I hear you in this silence

And I feel you in these sheets

Skin to skin, I hold you close enough to bleed

You have gone to find this past I was holding in my hands

For the love we’ve known is gone, leave me shaking for my home

You hold on to what you see, I close my eyes to let you breathe

Oh, I hear you in this silence

And I feel you in these sheets

Skin to skin, I hold you close enough to bleed

Hold me close

I weigh down

Heavy heart

A love apart

Hold me close

I follow

A faded you

My love’s see through
