Your Name in Winter Air - MONGYEON
The morning air is thin and bright
My breath turns into little lights
I walk alone, hands in my coat
The city learning how to float
Every step feels strangely new
Until the cold reminds me of you
It's funny how you disappear
But stay in things I breathe in here
No sound, no sign, no visible trace
Just your name in winter air
I say your name without a voice
It hangs around, I have no choice
Like fog that fades but lingers still
Like love that never learned to chill
I don't reach out, I don't compare
I just let it stay
Your name in winter air
The cafe door lets in the cold
Cups are warm, the day feels old
Someone laughs two tables away
It sounds like something we might say
I smile once then look outside
Where snow erases passing time
I'm not trying to hold you close
I know the shape of letting go
Some feelings don't ask to be fair
They simply breathe and stay
I say your name without a voice
It hangs around, I have no choice
Like fog that fades but lingers still
Like love that never learned to chill
I don't reach out, I don't compare
I just let it stay
Your name in winter air
If this is all you're meant to be
A quiet echo next to me
Then I'll keep walking slow and kind
Not chasing what I leave behind
I loved you once, that part is true
And that is enough to carry through
I say your name one last soft time
Then let it fade between the lines
The air grows clear, my hands are bare
But warmth is still surrounding me
Some loves are gone, yet everywhere
Like breath you see
Then don't
Your name in winter air
