i understand, i know — a song #8
Cars pass in blurs right outside the window
Head in your hands, painted by a dim glow
I drink my coffee and stare at the ground
Heart palpitations, you don’t even make a single sound
I still see you all around
Pavement is clawing right at my shoes
You walk ahead, yeah you’re leaving so soon
Streetlamps they follow and rainwater flows
Silence it echoes, I think you should know
That I still see you all around
Hardly know where we went wrong
There’s a gap in this town whenever you’re gone
You’ve got places to go, I understand I know
Can’t tell what’s rain or what’s tears
Head hangs whenever you’re near
You’ve got places to go, I understand I know
Shifting like lavenders caught in the breeze
Humming like children to sweet melodies
There was a time, we were lost and naïve
Cried out my soul at your birthday party
You just held me till it was over
Sung happy birthday with me at your side
Blew out the candles and turned off the lights
Sprawled on the grass, we were real we were right
Now where did that love disappear to tonight
You won’t hold me when it’s over
Hardly know where we went wrong
There’s a gap in this town when you’re gone
You’ve got places to go, I understand I know
Can’t tell what’s rain or what’s tears
Head hangs whenever you’re near
You’ve got places to go, I understand I know
