Here with You

You don't have to let me know
You don't have to say a word
I can tell by the way you speak my name down low
And by the things that I have heard

From the kitchen I would listen
Some days, in the morning
The nurse would come a-calling
And I could make out the news

And now I know the truth
What's left isn't yours or mine
I'm letting go one word at a time
Sitting now, here with you

I don't want to see you sad and blue
I don't want any of it, for heaven's sake
I don't want to be the one standing 'round watching
Hearts as they break

Can't trust your senses
Can't trust your independence
Can't trust your memories
From what exactly are you free?

Tell me, what are you free to do?
Gaze into familiar eyes
Shedding tears and you don't know why
I'm sitting now, here with you

Can you still remember
The kinds of places we would go?
Slip your fingers into my hand
And we can take off down the road

Miss you so
It ain't easy being easily prone
To loneliness, which doesn't fade
We only get more acquainted each passing day

Only one thing left to do
Linger in a long goodbye
I'm present, but I'm keeping time
Sitting now, here with you

The cafes are closing
The sky is black and blue
The streets are wide open
The world is brand new
