lyrics

You are the outlet, He's electricity
Coursing through your body nonstop for twenty years
Powering you up when you're at your weakest
But now that the powers out, you must slowly
Wander through your house and light up a candle
An unexpected storm
I know you'll rebuild

I wish he was here to see you
Better yet, he never left you

He is the night sky and you are the morning sun
The brightest in the day
Though you're waiting for dusk, you'll eventually move on
And care about what you can brighten
For you hold the power to keep it all balanced
Now it's like a chore, but you'll grow to love it

I wish he was here to see you
Better yet, he never left you

Can we just please rewind to yesterday to at least say goodbye?
Or even just one last look?
Then you'd feel the slightest fraction better
