Linger Lyrics by Lost Horizons

In Quiet Moments

2021

[Intro]
(How could I wonder? How could I wonder?)
[Verse 1]
I pull back my eyelids from my eyes
Try to let some light in
Feet to the ground and then it hits me
This unexplainable feeling in the pit of my stomach
I try avoiding sleep I don't wanna give in
Cause every time I wake i’m reliving it again
I'm calling your phone when it strikes me
Like the deafening screams of a grieving mother
[Pre-Chorus]
I play our memories on the back of my eyelids
When it's night and I’m alone it's the only place I go
[Chorus]
I'm wandering deep in my drеams
Calling you over and over and over again
Plеase linger (please linger, please linger)
I'm wondering why you always leave (please linger, please linger)
Me drowning in the sea I've cried for you
Please linger
[Verse 2]
Every night I stumble down the halls of my sleep you always greet me
Those glistening eyes and that widening smile
It feels so good to be home again
I remember how you held me
Before you disappeared into the ether
I wished you had lingered
Now I'm stuck in the embrace of your ghost
[Chorus]
I'm wandering deep in my dreams
Calling you over and over and over again
Please linger (please linger, please linger)
I'm wondering why you always leave (please linger, please linger)
Me drowning in the sea I’ve cried for you
Please linger
[Bridge]
My breath is growing shorter
And everyone around me says I’m fading
My eyelids turn heavy
As I follow your voice
I'm living in a memory
I know that it’s not healthy
The heaviness linger (now I'm stuck in the embrace of your ghost)
Take me now I have nothing to give
If you're not here I don't wanna in
Take me now it’s you I want the most
I can't move on when I'm loving your ghost
[Chorus]
I'm wandering deep in my dreams
Calling you over and over and over again
Please linger (please linger, please linger, please linger, please linger)
I'm wondering why you always leave
Me drowning in the sea I've cried for you
Please linger
[Outro]
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
Please linger
