Lyrics Love & Lack - Gabriela Besel

I missed the earliest train
Even though
I had slept on the metro floor
My body ached
Thinking of you
Dreaming all night
Of letting you go
But the sun is rising
I slept cold and alone
Good thing I'm leaving this city
With you in it behind.
It was just love
And lack thereof
The most natural dynamic
Of the human experience
That gives meaning
And takes it away
It's silly that way
The games that we play.
How all the ups and downs
End in a flat line
But it's okay
Because for a minute I had you.
You made me love the rain
'Cause you let it hit your face
So gently
Spinning around like a child
Finding in me what I'd find you
But it was fragile
The illusions we had of each other
Good thing I'm leaving this city
With you in it behind.
It was just love
And lack thereof
The most natural dynamic
Of the human experience
That gives meaning
And takes it away
It's silly that way
The games that we play.
How all the ups and downs
End in a flat line
But it's okay
Because for a minute
I had you.
You
I had you
