Song | Armchairs |
Artist | Andrew Bird |
Album | Armchair Apocrypha |
作曲 : | |
I dreamed you were a cosmonaut | |
Of the space between our chairs | |
And I was a cartographer | |
Of the tangles in your hair | |
I sang the song that silence brings | |
It's the one that everybody knows, everybody knows | |
The song that silence sings | |
And this, this is how it goes | |
These looms that weave apocrypha | |
They're hanging from a strand | |
This dark and empty rooms were full | |
Of incandescent hands | |
Awkward pause, the fatal flaw | |
Time, it's a crooked bow | |
Time is a crooked bow | |
Time you need to learn to love | |
The ebb just like the flow | |
Grab hold of your bootstraps and pull like hell | |
Until gravity feels sorry for you and lets you go | |
As if you lack the proper chemicals to know, oh | |
The way it felt the last time you let yourself fall this low | |
Time, time it's a crooked bow | |
Time's a crooked bow | |
Time's a crooked bow, oh, ooh | |
Fifty-five and three-eighths years later | |
At the bottom of this gigantic crater | |
An armchair calls to you | |
Yeah, this armchair calls to you | |
And it says that someday we'll get back at them all | |
With epoxy and a pair of pliers | |
As ancient sea slugs begin to crawl | |
Through the ragweed and barbed wire, oh | |
You didn't write, you didn't call | |
It didn't cross your mind at all, hey | |
Through the waves, the waves of hay and straw | |
You couldn't feel a thing at all | |
Fifty-five and three-eighths, time | |
Fifty-five and three-eighths time, time |
