lyrics

She makes it look easy
Sometimes I struggle to see her
A palette so tender, the canvas doesn't feel a thing

She's always around me
No frame will contain her
Soothing calm of an ocean breeze
A winter sky fractured in gold leaf

When I blink my eyes
I miss time with you
I love you

Light beams, bleed through
Light beams, seep through

Her colors surround me
She might be contagious
The harmony of an autumn tree
How I wish that I could hear it sing

Saw the sunrise in Brooklyn
The train left the station
It was then it occurred to me
That I didn't want to see it alone

When I blink my eyes
I miss out on you
I love you
