|
I am walking |
|
Out in the rain |
|
And i am listening to the low moan |
|
Of the dial tone again |
|
And i am getting |
|
Nowhere with you |
|
And i can't let it go |
|
And i can't get through... |
|
The old woman behind the pink curtains |
|
And the closed door |
|
On the first floor |
|
She's listening through the air shaft |
|
To see how long our swan song can last |
|
And both hands |
|
Now use both hands |
|
Oh, no don't close your eyes |
|
I am writing |
|
Graffitti on your body |
|
I am drawing the story of |
|
How hard we tried |
|
I am watching your chest rise and fall |
|
Like the tides of my life, |
|
And the rest of it all |
|
And your bones have been my bedframe |
|
And your flesh has been my pillow |
|
I am waiting for sleep |
|
To offer up the deep |
|
With both hands |
|
In eachother's shadows we grew less and less tall |
|
And eventually our theories couldn't explain it all |
|
And i'm recording our history now on the bedroom wall |
|
And eventually the landlord will come |
|
And paint over it all |
|
And i am walking |
|
Out in the rain |
|
And i am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again |
|
And i am getting nowhere with you |
|
And i can't let it go |
|
And i can't get though |
|
So now use both hands |
|
Please use both hands |
|
Oh, no don't close your eyes |
|
I am writing graffitti on your body |
|
I am drawing the story of how hard we tried |
|
Hard we tried |
|
How hard we tried |
