Lyrics

The coffee cools upon the sill, the morning paints you golden
I watch you sleep and feel the chill of stories left untold
I measured every word I said, each gesture and each touch
Afraid the love I poured instead was never quite enough
And I have built a cage of almost and of not quite right
A prisoner of potential in the dying of the light
I aim to be the ocean, but I feel a shallow stream
A man who loves you dearly trapped inside a desperate dream
I trace the maps of happiness on someone else's chart
This anxious architect of love who forgot to trust his heart
I offered you the moon and stars, a grand elaborate scheme
While missing all the quiet wars you fought inside a dream
And I have built a cage of almost and of not quite right
A prisoner of potential in the dying of the light
I aim to be the ocean, but I feel a shallow stream
A man who loves you dearly trapped inside a desperate dream
This fear is a thief in the house of my soul
It takes the small moments and loses control
It counts every failure, it weighs every cost
And shows me the love that I might have just lost
So here's my love in its imperfect design
No longer a monument, just a hand holding mine
It's not the grand gesture, it's not the great vow
It's simply me learning to love you right now
Just now
