A glass of earnest air,
my breath,
and I've been laid down on my spine
You heard my pages pinned open to
the place where I left off last time
I asked how long it was since I'd been on your mind
You just smiled and asked me,
what's the point in trying
if you don't even like me?
But instead I've been waiting for the sun
Eclipsed in my conviction in anything I've
ever really thought might have been love
I just lied, said, darling, I don't like anyone
It's not your fault,
but don't mistake me for a duck
I guess I don't mind
saying everything twice If it means that my company can suffice
I guess I'd see the stars,
but I could stay a while
For the night, for the night, whatever you like
I'll be alright, I'll be alright, I'll
be a shadow light
Saying everything twice
So my company
Can suffice
And I can stay a while
For the night, for the night,
whatever you like
I'll be alright
