"Mourning" lyrics

"Mourning"

You fly over
When it's cold out
Follow me home
Back to the lighthouse
Another voice in the dark says you won't sing to me
It's better if I accept it

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I can't feel anymore
So I will wait by my window until the morning
And you swear it gets better when the bitterness hits
If I don't accept it

Will you float on
As the wind blows
If I don't accept it?
My denial stops the wheel
Another voice in my heart begs you to sing to me
It's better than I expected

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I can't feel anymore
So I will wait by my window until the morning
And you swear it gets better when the bitterness hits
If I don't accept it

If I don't accept it
If I don't accept it
My denial stops the wheel
If I don't accept it
If I don't accept it
If I don't accept it
My denial stops the wheel
If I don't accept it

I heard you call at my window just like a mourning dove
Straight through the heart of a feeling I don't feel at all
So now I wait by the window until the morning
I can never take back the pain you give if you leave me

I won't accept it
My denial stops the wheel
No, I won't accept it
My denial keeps you here
