A White Tree With a Jet Black Dove - Jason Reeves

Under a sky of clouds it got no rain

I sat in a window sill without the pain

Watching a white tree with a jet black dove

That’s what the world looks like without your love

I’m just a diamond that reflects no light

Lost in the ashes of a wildfire

Holding a moonrise in my coffee cup

That’s what the world looks like without your love

And there ain’t no good reason to believe or to force myself to

It was all just a dream and my messed up heart really mattered to you

When the lie hits the truth ain’t nothing to do but sit back and watch the

movie play

So I lie to my face when I look in the mirror and say that you’re coming back

someday

Hungry horizons swallowing the sun

That’s what the world looks like without your love

Now I’m a symphony of silent sound

Turning my broken reason down

I’ve got it all but it’s still not enough

That’s what the world looks like without your love

And there ain’t no good reason to believe or to force myself to

It was all just a dream and my messed up heart really mattered to you

When the lie hits the truth ain’t nothing to do but sit back and watch the

movie play

So I lie to my face when I look in the mirror and say that you’re coming back

someday

I’m dreaming on canvas but the colors run

That’s what the world looks like without your love

Imagine the shadow that nobody casts

I’m on the dark side of the looking glass

Up in a white tree with a jet black dove

That’s what the world looks like without your love

That’s what the world looks like without your love
