lyrics

It won’t stop spinning
Not for a minute
The lies erase a thousand days away from me

I can’t help but feeling
The summers freezing out
These lies are fleeting now
They’ve gone with you

The water waits
For nightfall
It’s all wrong
It’s all for naught

The line it takes
From B to A
From gone to rain
From heart to brain

The water waits
The line it takes
For nightfall
From heart to brain

All the distance and time in the world and I’d still wait for just a minute with you
I touched your hand and that was it
You sat by me and I froze up like an animal caught in the street like you were supposed to know what I mean and yesterday when I said goodbye i wish I never had to sometimes I wish I never met you just so I’d never have to lose you when you’re not mine to lose and all the salt in the sea turned to gold wouldn’t be enough from me to you but an honest glance would be more from you to me like some shimmering moment from a movie

The water waits
For nightfall
It’s all wrong
It’s all for naught

The line it takes
From B to A
From gone to rain
From heart to brain

The water waits
The line it takes
For nightfall
From heart to brain
