wake up from the dream where you kiss me when you're sober
I see you in the light, then I blink and then it's over
wasn't life so pretty when I'd meet you in the garden?
you'd say my name forever like it was a song
you know, the sunset's not so pretty when you look straight at the light
I never learn my lesson, I always burn my eyes
drive into the street like it's any other thursday
I almost see your face as I merge onto the highway
I think of you forever like a long expanding field
you take up so much space in every way I feel
you know, the world is always spinning and we're just here for the ride
I hope that through earth's movements we finally collide
my body's like a wave, always moving towards you
you look at me that way and I know that I can't have you
but wasn't life so pretty when you'd meet me in the water?
you'd say a little prayer before ever going under
you know I'd stand and wait for you to come and swim up
I'd wait and wait forever but I guess that wasn't enough
i forgot how good this record is, i picked up the vinyl at a record store figuring i would listen again eventually, and here i am the same night enjoying every track. definitely worth listening!! katt2
