lyrics

The seasons have changed five times since I met you. The air is cold again and baby you’re still the one who I want to hide in the dark of my bed and drink red wine with, turn down the sound with. Outside my oasis the streets buzz like catwalks as the shoes from the trees taunt the art on the pavements, but my bed is an igloo, when you’re in it I don’t ever want to open the curtains. But I’ll never be this young again. If I don’t blow you away now then maybe I never will. And there’s a world outside my blues and there are treasures to be found. And there’s a life outside of you with a steadier ground. I long for you, for the times inbetween, before the guards change and I’m left wearing shadows of your hands, before the light leaves the words from before hanging like undeveloped photographs. I want to tell you that you got on through the right door but since the bus stopped I’ve been trying to keep my feet on the floor, because I don’t speak the language you hear when she talks in the code you’ve grown to know. And I’ll never be this young again. If I don’t blow you away now then maybe I never will. And there’s a world outside my blues and there are treasures to be found. And there’s a life outside of you with a steadier ground. Outside my window the music is playing, the people, the market, I feel like I’m failing. Why can’t you see it that my heart is taken? And if I was stronger I might keep on waiting. But the seasons have changed five times since I’ve met you, the air is cold again and baby you’re still the one who.
