🎙️ Eli Rowan – “Half a Light”

Details

Description

I wrote this one on a night when everything felt a little too loud — except the memories.
There’s this jacket I keep… not ‘cause it fits, but ‘cause it remembers.
And some things... we carry just to feel the weight of what’s gone.
Hope you hear your own story in mine."

🎶 Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I kept your cup on the second shelf
Right where your fingers used to dwell
Didn’t drink from it, didn’t clean the stain
Just left it there to feel something again

[Chorus]
And now I walk these halls with half a light
Like dawn that never turns to day
You're gone but still not out of sight
Just further than my hands can say
I carry you in silent ways
In sighs, in pauses, in empty space

[Verse 2]
Your name still echoes in creaking floors
In the hush behind my closing doors
The photographs all turned to face the wall
But I still see you most of all

[Chorus]
I walk these halls with half a light
Like a song that never ends the fight
You’re gone but still not out of mind
A presence in the quiet night
I carry you in silent ways
In pages I forget to turn each day

[Bridge]
Some things don’t fade — they just learn to hide
Like the tears I buried in my pride

[Outro]
So if you see me talking low
It's not the wind… it’s you I know.
