Close but Far (Sicily Night)

Описание: Featured in Mediterranean Blue— A tribute to the heavenly visit from my father and second brother
   • Azulejo de Saudade  

Sicily sunrise on my window
But the streets feel quiet without you
Lost in my footsteps through the old stone roads
I'm drifting like the tide trying to find my home
Last night I saw my brother smiling
Tonight it's you sitting by my side, driving
You ask me where we're going, I pretend I know
But I'm only choosing roads my heart can hold

Pre-Chorus
And I don't know why
When I'm far from home, you feel so close
Maybe heaven sends its echoes
In the places where I'm most alone

Chorus
I'm on the road to find you
Even when the map is fading from my view
Choosing a simple place for two
Afraid it won't be good enough for you
But you wait for me like sunrise
Soft and gentle in the quiet night
If love is a road I'm passing through
I hope one day it leads me back to you

Verse 2
I pick a little restaurant near the sea
Simple dishes, just like the memories
I'm scared you'll think it's nothing grand or new
But maybe all you wanted was to eat with me
And I'm learning not to worry
About the things I can't carry
Sometimes all a wandering heart can do
Is show up as it is, and hope it's enough for you

Bridge
Maybe all this drifting
Is you lifting
The weight I couldn't name
Maybe all this distance
Is forgiveness
For the things I couldn't say

Chorus (repeat)
I'm on the road to find you
Even when the map is fading from my view
Choosing a simple place for two
Afraid it won't be good enough for you
But you wait for me like sunrise
Soft and gentle in the quiet night
If love is a road I'm passing through
I hope one day it leads me back to you

Outro
Sicily night, I whisper your name
In every old stone street I walk again
And I know you're gone, but somehow it's true
Every road I take still leads me back to you
