Recessional 歌詞
"it's so beautiful here " she says
"this moment now and this moment now "
And i never thought i would find her here:
Flannel and satin my four walls transformed
But she's looking at me straight to center
No room at all for any other thought
And i know i don't want this oh i swear i don't want this
There's a reason not to want this but i forgot
In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder
Hair falling forward mouth all askew
Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead:
"passengers missing we're looking for you "
And she dreams through the noise her weight against me
Face pressed into the corduroy grooves
Maybe it means nothing maybe it means nothing
Maybe it means nothing but i'm afraid to move
And the words: they're everything and nothing
I want to search for her in the offhand remarks
Who are you taking coffee no sugar
Who are you echoing street signs
Who are you the stranger in the shell of a lover
Dark curtains drawn by the passage of time
Oh words like rain how sweet the sound
"well anyway " she says "i'll see you around "
