Lyrics

Those first words were a promise,
printed in wax to keep me honest.
Every verse, they’re related.
Though the meaning’s understated.
And if you ever need reminding,
You know where you can find it.
If any words need under lining.
I’ll do the explaining

There’s a subtle friction thats at play between me and you
And it keeps us warm at night as I lay next to you
Because I can’t really sleep, and I don’t need to eat
when my mind keeps coming back to you.

I never really know how to prove
That every word is all for you.
They only come out right,
when it is too late at night.
So tell me how to prove
That every word is all for you.
They only come out right,
when it is too late at night.

So I sit here twisting every syllable.
Breaking up the words to try and find a verse.
But tomorrow is a new day, so I’ll find a new way
and maybe I’ll explain it to you.

I never really know how to prove
That every word is all for you.
They only come out right,
when it is too late at night.
So tell me how to prove
That every word is all for you.
They only come out right,
when it is too late at night.

And on the page it now sinks,
old words but in new ink.
And I hope that I will succeed
in letting you know what I mean.
And now that page has dried,
I’ll try to sleep tonight,
but I know I won’t such succeed
