(Song and Lyrics: Sarasvvati)
In this dimming room I’m still awake
Clocks are ticking bring me the heartache
Staring at the empty space
Wish I can see your face
Wind is blowing and I do nothing
As the chimes won’t stop I’m still waiting
Staring at the empty space
Wish I can see your face
And I still sleep in the same side of the bed
Keeping the place where you used to be
And it’s by my side
I long for you arms
I still find it so hard for me to say goodbye
Same side of the bed
I long for you touch
I believe we can be together again
As the time will come
This song is dedicated for my grandma. The song I wrote couple days ago when I noticed that no matter how big or small is the bed I use for sleep, I still sleep in one side of the bed as if I give some space for someone to sleep beside me.
It is a habit I can’t change because I used to sleep with my grandma every single night, even when she finally passed away in 2000, up until now 2013, I still sleep in one side of the bed, hoping that one day, when I open my eyes in the morning or right before I sleep at night I would be able to see her face again.
