Sophia

5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony

Spilling out across the road and the square

And the sky's the same. As you're alone, do you think of me?

Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there?

After the rain, in the lonely hour as

He haunts me, calling out

Again and again

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning

It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out

Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things

I can't go without and one of them is him

And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my home town

Learn the language, form the words when I speak

But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around

And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks

Passion and silence

Every word, every line, a measure

It's the science of the soul

And his books, they breathe a reason and now I wanna know

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning

It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out

Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things

I can't go without and one of those is him

You, with your new born eyes

Have you ever loved a man like I love him?

Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before?

Oh, Sophia, Sophia

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning

It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out

Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things

I can't go without

I can't go without him
