I want to take your hand
Slide my fingers between yours
Palm to palm
And mute all of the dissonant chords
I want to know what this is
This lonliness that feels so free
I know I can’t keep you
And you know that you can’t keep me
And now I’m thinking that I should’ve sung you
Happy birthday, softly with my lips against your ear
So I’ll do it in my mind now and I’ll do it in the flesh
If we’re together today next year
Next year
I want to let you sleep
But I can’t seem to keep still enough
You say this way
You fall faster and harder in love
I want to take your picture
As you look the other way
Capture the goodbye
That goodbye cannot say
