The Sound of White

The Sound Of White - Missy Higgins (蜜西·希金斯)

Like a freeze-dried rose you will never be

What you were

What you were to me in memory

But if I listen to the dark

You'll embrace me like a star

Envelope me envelope me

If things get real for me down here

Promise to take me to before you went away -

If only for a day

If things get real for me down here

Promise to take me back to the tune

We played before you went away

And if I listen to the sound of white

Sometimes I hear your smile

And breathe your light

Yeah if I listen to the sound of white

You're my mystery One mystery

My mystery One mystery

My silence solidifies

Until that hollow void erases you

Erases you so I can't feel at all

But if I never feel again

At least that nothingness

Will end the painful dream

Of you and me

If things get real for me down here

Promise to take me to

Before you went away if only for a day

If things get real for me down here

Promise to take me back to

The tune we played before you went away

And if I listen to the sound of white

Sometimes I hear your smile

And breathe your light

Yeah if I listen to the sound of white

Sometimes I hear your smile

And breathe your light

And if I listen to the sound of white

I knelt before some strangers face

I'd never have the courage

Or belief to trust this place

But I dropped my head 'cos it felt like lead

And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair

And if I listen to the sound of white sometimes

I hear your smile and breathe your light

Yeah if I listen to the sound of white

The sound of white

The sound of white

The sound of white
