Sixpence None The Richer
"Melting Alone"

Music & Lyrics by : Matt Slocum

tonight the lamplight swirls and glistens 
melting itself upon my face 
I'm hanging my silhouette near the shoreline 
I'm swimming underneath in the noontime 

will I ever know what's wrong with me? 
will I ever see your hand again in mine... 

tonight the rain is pelting rooftops 
there is no fire to melt the cold 
I'm straining to hear a human whisper 
and I'm painting images on the soft stone 

now I'm drinking alone 
amidst these figures of stone 
I'll raise the glass once again
