lyrics

how’s living with no moon at night?
are you ok all on your own?
are you doing things right?
I called your number, it ain’t on anymore
I just like the feeling that I get
from something that used to be yours

but, carry on
and honey don’t ever think of me
don’t make it harder on yourself than it needs to be
I’m missing you, ain’t nothing new
brother blue

these days, I’m breathing
I’m getting used to the dark
singing my love songs all alone
still trying to just leave a mark
hey, can you hear me?
when you’re out in the yard?
do you hear rhythms in the walls
and the notes between the bars?

I carry on
but, I keep you with me through my day
just waiting on some space and time
when we can live our lives our way
I’m missing you, ain’t nothing new
brother blue

and when it finally came to be
I needed to believe 
in beyond what we can see
I’ll make my peace with all the dreams
I had for you and me
while you’re gone
cuz, I have been holding on too long

we carry on
and act like it’s under control
nobody really wants to hear
about our shattered souls
but, I’m missing you, ain’t nothing new
brother blue
yeah, I’m missing you, ain’t nothing new
brother blue
