A recorded reading of “I Buried You in the Sky”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
You didn’t fall— you just rose slow and taught the clouds what it means to glow. I kept you close by letting go— a grief so wide, it starts to show in stars, in wind, in twilight’s sigh— I buried you in the sky.
Lyrics
You slipped from time Without a sound No body left To hold or ground So I looked up Instead of down And wrote your name In every cloud You became What light can’t hide So I buried you In the sky I buried you in the sky Where silence sings And angels cry Where stars remember How you shined I couldn’t hold you So I tried To let you go Where gods might fly I buried you in the sky I hear your laugh In thunder’s hum A sacred echo When day is done I miss the weight But love’s still near Your memory Is crystal clear You became The dusk, the high So I buried you In the sky I buried you in the sky Where silence sings And angels cry Where stars remember How you shined I couldn’t hold you So I tried To let you go Where gods might fly I buried you in the sky Some souls Aren’t meant to stay They write their names In Milky Ways I buried you in the sky Where time can’t chase Or questions pry Where love is still And never dies I buried you in the sky
