lyrics
I must have just missed you in the most passing tense
In between the hollow outlook on the day that is tomorrow
I'll think it tomorrow
Tomorrow
I'll think it tomorrow
So I'll send my fingers and they'll write a lot
Write me a story you stole off the glance of another
By the touch of an eye
Real hands felt by a seeker
I'll let go of the hex they placed on my head and move on
In a blue world
I thought
I thought
That between us
There is a light
It kills when it shines
Darling be the sun
Or be the one in a while
Old love, when you look at me
It's all you'd see in a shot glass
And lover can you be my guide?
Because I go blind at each permanent divide
Once more be the sign
It's not the brown or green your eyes
It's between us
It's between us
There's a light and it kills when it shines
When it dies
I can hear your voice
It's the first time
