Two Weeks Without You

You might be lining up offshore
as I fly in from the North
looking down over the waters
towards an amber patch inland

You might be busy with your life
chasing dreams where I don’t belong
while I’m running out of time
to break the chains and let it go

Two weeks without you seem a long long time to wait
Two weeks without you when I’ll be counting off the days
Too many lost heartbeats, too many chords that won’t be heard
Two weeks without you is a long long time to waste

Hummingbirds might wake you up
To a bright and sunny day
I’ll be here waiting for dusk
and tuning all my guitars down

So much space between us now
So much cold and light up there
No excuse to call you
so I’ll write you songs instead

Two weeks without you seem a long long time to wait
Two weeks without you when I’ll be counting off the days
Too many lost heartbeats, too many words that won’t be said
Two weeks without you is a long long time to waste
