sadness - on an april night

Added 2025-04-23 23:02:09 +0000 UTC

i recorded all the drums for this in the beginning of 2021 (january). i always had a loose idea of what i wanted to do with this song where i record all the drums first and build the rest of the instruments on top of the drum improvisation, but i just never got around to making the rest of the song until just now

on an april night you feel like rain
that flutters like dancing flowerpetals towards the ground
as they lay a soft blanket on shallow puddles
capturing orange starlight
and it quivers with every thouch
it somehow looks like you

somehow heals like sleep in warm arms
somehow ripples like you're the one
i find myself making rings of my hands to wrap around your wrist
just like the rain at your feet
somehow watching from so high above
somehow watching from an intimate window
in all of my dreams of flying i hug an image of you burning to share
and our smiles stretch as wide as our wingspan
and i want to say it
i want to say it
the orange stars in your eyes are every word i want to say
how can i show you
