Lo(v_n)er Lyrics

When I left home, I brought the ghost of the lover

The company she keeps, kept her very lonely

She said she was an artist a lifetime ago

But she cooks for five and plants flowers in her garden

I think she was all along

And it made me feel small

Window shopping at the mall

Cause she's human after all

Oh lover, come back to me

You've spread yourself too thin

Oh, would you bloom once more with the light on you?

If you only knew how much your love meant to me

Come back to life

In the mirror I was met by the loner

He was asking for the time

When I looked at him he felt like a stranger

But I've known him all my life

He said the language he spoke was the giving of treasures

Until there were none, left in his chest

So then he went on and made strangers out of lovers

Until he was all alone

Oh loner, you're not too far gone

You've lost yourself in everybody else

Oh would you rest your burning soul at last

If only you knew your time was much more than enough

Then you wouldn't be lost
