So she whispers lightly
Says she feels alive here
Have I been here before?
Oh I just don't know yeah
And I watch her flicker
'Til I realize that I'm only dreaming
And I keep repeating
Send your monotone back to me
Send your monotone back to me
'Cause I don't think I can feel this way after you go
And she's slowly fading
As her light gets brighter
Will I ever see her?
Oh I just don't know yeah
And she smiles when I say
"Girl, you're all I'm needing"
Should have painted pictures with goodbye whispers
Send your monotone back to me
Send your monotone back to me
'Cause I don't think I can feel this way after you go
Send your monotone back to me
Send your monotone back to me
'Cause I don't think I can feel this way after you go
And if I call you out
Would you find your way back here and flicker like you
do
And if I hold you tight
And let you turn out the light
Would you keep me from waking up
'Cause that's when you're alive
That's when you're alive
And that's when I'm alive
'Cause that's when you're alive
Send your monotone back to me
Send your monotone back to me
'Cause I don't think I can feel this way after you go
Send your monotone back to me
Send your monotone back to me
'Cause I don't think I can feel this way after you go
You have to stay alive
And give me life
