lyrics

I’ve been thinking about the space
You leave in the linens
The sound the bedsheets make
When you’re not there to fill them

But if I look long enough
I see the currents in your company
Your limbs swim with an undertow
And the light’s too low to let it go

The way you dance around me on your toes
Your pockets full of all of the moments that we stole

Do I underestimate life’s ability to prorate wanderlust?
Darling, can you see the sun in the space we’ve made to live in?
(honestly)

But for the first time now
Forever is a possibility
And wearing nothing but a whisky coke
We’re both too scared to let it show

That there are waves in you I can’t help you dam
The movements I’ll never understand
You can’t keep my peace, I can’t start your war
There’s only so much life that we can ignore
The cold might come to claim beauty we can’t name
Keep what we cultivate in a picture frame
It will never grow, It will never change
I won’t hold the chain that keeps you in the bay

So we just dance around it on our toes
The fear our frame won’t handle the weight of the unknown

So let us look chance in the eye
Be resolute in knowing
You can love every single seed and lose your garden to the seasons
We are nothing if not persistent darling
We are nothing if not the sum of the people that we love
