Letters in the Dark

[Verse 1]
I wrote you a letter
but the ink ran thin
like the silence between us
where the hurt’s been living in

Your coat still hangs
like a ghost in the hall
I touch the sleeve gently
and it says nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus]
I keep your memory
in a glass by the bed
sip it down slowly
like the words we never said

[Chorus]
Oh! love is bitter love is sweet
like cherry wine that stains my teeth
I drink it just to feel you near
a bruise a prayer a shadow here
Oh! love’s a letter never sent
folded corners paper bent—
and in the dark I call your name
but nothing ever answers back the same

[Verse 2]
I see you in strangers
the tilt of their smile
but it fades like a flicker
like the moon after miles—
the nights are too quiet
the mornings too long
I hum our old verses
but they don’t make a song

[Pre-Chorus]
Your absence lingers
like a hand on my chest
pressing so softly
but it won’t let me rest

[Chorus]
Oh! love is bitter love is sweet
like cherry wine that stains my teeth
I drink it just to feel you near
a bruise a prayer a shadow here
Oh! love’s a letter never sent
folded corners paper bent—
and in the dark I call your name
but nothing ever answers back the same

[Bridge]
Would you forgive me
if I never let go—
would you still haunt me
just to tell me so—
every word I wrote
is a scar on the page
bleeding with silence
burning with age

[Final Chorus]
Oh! love is bitter love is sweet
like cherry wine that stains my teeth
I drink it just to feel you near
a bruise a prayer a shadow here
Oh! love’s a letter never sent
folded corner paper bent
and in the dark I call your name
but nothing ever answers back the same

[Outro]
So goodnight my dear—
goodnight my ghost
You were the wound
and the cure I wanted most
