IS IT YOU

I saw a light through my window
Just a flicker in my head
Didn’t fill my room like a car light
I was all set to go to bed.

I was thinking about the past times
Stardust nights we fooled around
But as I looked out of the window
I saw no light or heard no sound.

Rf:
Things said in the book I read
Reminded me of you
Strange you’re not here
Your face is so clear
I even whispered
Is it you

I sometimes see you in the mirror.
I dream of you through night and day.
I sometimes turn, expect to see you
Or hear the words you used to say.

When I walk I feel you’re with me
I smell your secrets in the air
I close my eyes and I can see you
But I know you’ll only disappear.

Rf:
Things said in the book I read
Reminded me of you
Strange you’re not here
Your face is so clear
I even whispered
Is it you

I don’t want to be here without you
I don’t want to be here all alone.
Was the light a sign of pain
Are you feeling just the same
Shining lights a beacon on our home.

Is it you
Is it you
Is it you

Is it you
Is it you
Is it you.
