The Unseen Chorus

Two of us but my eyes slipped away
Two of us but my hands couldn't stay
In the glow of a phone in the steam of the night
I lost my way before the light

I chased the shadows I fed the flame
I forgot his touch I forgot his name
Every lie every swipe every line
I thought it was hunger but it was mine

The Ramble's mine I sang before
But now I see it was a closing door
The hunger won the night was long
But silence never made me strong

Yes I can host became my prayer
Bodies knocking but no one there
Pixels glow the endless scroll
It hollowed me it ate me whole

Divorce came signed the papers fell
A thousand secrets I could not tell
But in that room I learned to say
Addict broken but here today

One day at a time we make it home
One day at a time we're not alone
I thought the night would never end
But now I rise I start again

Burnt cookies waiting on a tray
A poster sighs one step today
I met his eyes across the room
And love returned to break the gloom

We're not supposed to but maybe we might
One little coffee one harmless night
We're not supposed to but maybe it's true
That breaking the rules was leading to you

Ten years strong ten years true
Every scar now leads me back to you
Ten years long we found where we belong
Forever is here because of you

Ten years strong ten years bold
Ten years and a lifetime to hold
Ten years strong ten years true
Ten years and I still choose you

One day at a time we make it home
One day at a time we're not alone
The unseen chorus sings through me
A thousand voices history

One day at a time the night is gone
One day at a time I carry on
The chorus fades but I remain
Alive with love alive again

And tonight I am home
