My cover of "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton. I've been really liking this song lately, so I thought I'd try covering it.

Maybe it was the way the sunlight

peered in through the chestnut colored curtains

and the way it moved so gracefully upon the aged wooden floorboards

as night slowly crept in

and routinely pushed the daylight away.

Maybe it was the way the room smelled

of sandalwood and freesia

and desires and possibility

of quiet and solitude

of nothing, nothing, nothing,

and later,

everything, everything, everything.

An aroma of perfection.

Maybe it was your gentle solicitude;

the way you glanced at me

with compassionate indigo eyes

as I stood against the frigid gray wall

across the room

lost in a complicated trance.

Maybe it was the sheer possibility

permeating throughout the room

making our hearts beat faster
