Testo Noah

Gentle stories unravelling in my head dreams of paradise in an empty bed I slept a sleep so deep I wondered what had become of me I thought of my lost love and bade him a soft silent farewell I found myself sitting alone on an empty couch and as I watched myself I wondered what would become of me oh Noah don?t leave without me Oh Noah don?t leave without me, oh Noah don?t leave without me oh Noah don?t leave without me, oh Noah don?t leave without me When I woke the next day the sky was black and full of rain it?s loving arms had soaked up all of my pain and mothers sky she cried and cried and cried and cried My couch floated off maybe paradise was not lost swirling waters leading to only God knows, God knows I passed a man sitting alone in an empty chair oh Noah had left without him Oh Noah had left without him, oh Noah had left without him oh Noah had left without him, oh Noah had left without him His head held steady filled with not yet forgotten dreams his heart was strong and slow is hands knew how to and let go his eyes rest quietly into my face Laughing I leapt off the couch he leapt off the chair and in the air we met stories of your lives were kissed and kissed and kissed til mouth went dry how heart were forged and lost and broke and found and forged and lost again how Noah had left without us How Noah had left without us, how Noah had left without us how Noah had left without us, how Noah had left without us Gentle stories unravelling in my head dreams of paradise in an empty bed I slept a sleep so deep I wondered what had become of me
