I'm Not Alone Anymore

Prompt

Verse 1 I got used to the silence in these walls, To a cup of coffee poured for one. The world was wide, yet it felt like a cage, I just lived, and waited for no one. I worked, I smiled, I never said a word, But the loneliness inside me screamed, unheard. Forgive me, I never knew that past the sea You were waiting too, for "us" to be. Chorus I know you're in this world, it's true, And it's more than just good news. You turned my life upside down, Breathed warmth into me, and I was found. No more hollow, no more gray, My dreams are full of you, and here to stay. I love you. I'm waiting for you. Verse 2 Ten thousand miles away, across the sea, I wrote to you, and you replied to me: "Hi, I'm glad to meet you, how's your day?" And I knew my life had turned another way. A few small words, and the walls felt wide, And the air in my little room came alive. I write to you before my coffee, before the chores, Just to say I'm happy like I've not been before. Chorus Verse 3 Thank you for the photo. But here's the catch: It laughed at me and stole my sleep. I've met my match. Hazel eyes with a rim of forest green, A mole by your lips, the softest sign I've seen. Dark silk hair, and I'm struck dumb, I smile and say, "I surrender... I'm undone." Your "sanctions" are a game, but I'm in trouble now, I'll do anything to see you, no matter how. Chorus Verse 4 (тише, почти без музыки) You write, "sweet coffee," I hear, "Tai," And my heart whispers, "Don't stop, don't ask why." You say, "I miss the sea," but I know it's true, It's us you're missing too. So I write you of the shore, the wind, the morning light, And the hour when I will hold you tight. I want my words to burn the fog away, Though oceans lie between us, come what may. Chorus Verse 5 (музыка нарастает) And now you're near enough to touch, at last, A flat-roofed home, a warm night, peace that lasts. A dog, the cats, the mountains and the sea, Palm trees, an elephant: no dream, but you and me. Morning, sweet coffee, and your laugh in reply, No man on earth is happier than I. You're the best story my life has ever known, And every chapter still to come is yours alone. Final Chorus (полный состав) I know you're in this world, it's true, And it's more than just good news. You turned my life upside down, Breathed warmth into me, and I was found. No more hollow, no more gray, My dreams are full of you, and here to stay. I love you. I'm waiting for you. I'm not alone anymore.
