Description
[Intro]
Sparse piano, a single streetlight hums,
Vinyl crackle, breath held where the night becomes.
[Verse 1]
It was raining on Third Avenue, your umbrella left in the cab,
Neon flickered like a promise, flipping coins inside my hands.
I kept your cigarette in the ashtray of my coat,
Smelled like thrift-store leather and the coffee from the corner store.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tell myself that's enough to keep the dark away—
But the truth is a thin wire, and my heart walks on it anyway.
[Chorus]
This flame finds the dark — I hold it to your name,
This flame finds the dark — and calls me like a flame.
Keep it simple, keep it small — a light against the rain,
This flame finds the dark, and I come home again.
[Verse 2]
You taught me how to listen to the silence in the room,
Where your laugh used to live beneath the hum of summer June.
There’s a paper ticket folded in the book you never read,
Stamped July 9, the night you told me not to leave.
[Pre-Chorus]
So I fold the quiet into something I can wear,
A map of all the doorways that led me to your stare.
[Chorus — Variation A]
This flame finds the dark — I cup it in my hands,
This flame finds the dark — it burns, but understands.
One small light, a stubborn heart — it keeps the city sane,
This flame finds the dark, and I come home again.
[Bridge]
I carried your jacket down to the river where the tide forgets to speak,
I watched the streetlight write your name in patches on the creek.
Forgive me for the nights I ran, for the times I held my fear,
If love is made of small rebellions, then I’ll spend my life right here.
I will stand beneath that lamp, confess the things I couldn’t say,
I will trade my silence for a morning where your footstep stays.
[Chorus — Variation B (final, with gospel lift)]
This flame finds the dark — and calls me by your name,
This flame finds the dark — it calls me, calls me back again.
We sing small lights into a chorus, gospel hands and weathered skin,
This flame finds the dark — and now you find me in.
[Outro]
Sparse piano, warm Rhodes hum, let the last note hold like breath,
Third Avenue is quiet now, but in my chest the light is kept.
This flame finds the dark — one last time I say it plain,
This flame finds the dark, and I come home again.
