Drank a coffee at the counter, escaping from a downpour
Last time, we took the table by the front door
If I had a witness, I could blame the rain
Wanted to come over, I was overcome again
The focus was soft
The angle was wide
We were losing the light
Seeing black and white
I still have the photograph
Your eyes are closed
The moment passed
Saw you as the sun went down, I thought the skies had cleared
You smiled for the camera, then you disappeared
The focus was soft
The angle was wide
We were losing the light
Seeing black and white
I still have the photograph
Your eyes are closed
The moment passed
In light of recent darkness I’m mapping out the stars
Something to believe in
The focus was soft
The angle was wide
We were losing the light
Seeing black and white
I still have the photograph
Your eyes are closed
The moment passed
