Mourning Air
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Did I see a moment with you
In a half lit world
I'm frightened to believe
But I must try
If I stumble, if I fall
I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Have I got the strength to ask?
Beyond the window
I feel this fear alone
Until we have
Total honesty
If I tremble or fall
I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Should i feel the moment with you
To softly whisper
I crave nothing else so much
Longing to reveal
Total honesty
I can feel your touch
I'm reaching out in this mourning air
