Words and Music by Kiya Heartwood
Solitary way
Don't leave me lonely
Won't you walk through my door
So I don't have to play
This solitary way
The stars are out tonight
But things don't seem right
All the planes and satellites
Masquerade
They all move too fast
It's the real ones that last
And hold their light until the morning fades
Chorus
Kitchen chair
And a coffee cup
I keep my courage up
I watch the clouds scatter on the hills
And I try to believe
But there's too much time to grieve
For the ones that I loved
And always will
Chorus
Reaching out and you're not there
The faucet drips with real despair
Holding on to the words and air
That you will be with me
(You know I need you, never leave you
How can things stay this way
No regrets, I can't forget
It's just not another day)
The promise that you made
It's the time that I forgave
For life as it is and what could be
Chorus
