Let Me Love the Lonely

Sometimes you meet people who laugh at other people's jokes because they don't know how else to fill the silence. They smile, but their eyes are switched off, like a lamp without a bulb. And suddenly it becomes quiet around them, as if someone has turned down the volume of the world.

And then another person appears - just as broken, but with warm hands and a strange stubbornness to believe that two lonely souls can build a home together. It may not be perfect, but it has a fire where you can finally warm yourself.

This is a song about how love is sometimes not fireworks, but simply a way to pull each other out of the darkness. Without pathos, without promises. Just ‘let me hug you until it gets easier.’
