lyrics

Drown me in your sympathy. I'm sorry that I've been missing you. I know it's true, I'm still so blue, wanting you. I'm covered in your apathy. Like faces meet in passing cars. You'll go as far to glance inside my window and smile slightly.

If I could find a way to rhyme, your heartbeat pressed against mine. Then maybe you could want me too. Beating in love and rhythm. I push my pen to the paper and write letters that I'll never send. I'll try and find a better way to pass the time.

Till' I see your face.

Another song it's been so long since we sat on your front porch. A cigarette between my lips. I played you songs that I wrote. You sat and stared, I felt quite scared. With honest words, my heart I'd bear. Two hour drives, the northern skies. I felt along.

Till' I saw your face.

Another line, more wasted time. Distracted by your quiet eyes. The kitchen floor, left wanting more. Unending conversation. Another day has passed away. I wish you'd stay. It's golden hour, you turn to drive away. Just once I wish I had the words to say.
