Violetta Zironi - When I Wake Lyrics

I hear the rain upon the window sill
It taps a beat out like a drum
And though you're gone your memory lingers still
In every passing face I swear I saw your eyes

I wrap my arms
Round you memory
I close my eyes and drift to sleep
And when I wake
If you're still gone
I'll dry my tears and face the dawn
Alone

You're reflection on the window pane
And your footsteps down the hall
Are my reminder you'll return again
To claim this burning heart that longs for only you

I wrap my arms
Round you memory
I close my eyes and drift to sleep
And when I wake
If you're still gone
I'll dry my tears and face the dawn
Alone

So I lay down my arms
And these tired bones
And when the morning breaks
Maybe you'll find your way back home
