Bilingual
Gray skies forming up ahead
ย
And you light up like a cigarette
ย
Records playing on the set
We don't have a long time left
ย
You call out, you call out every time
I pass through the hall
That's where your pictures are
You call out, you call out every time
I sing out a note
There go the words you spoke, hey
ย
Packing up is turning in
ย
One last look before your eyes grow dim
ย
Lay your silhouette on the bed
And ask me my where my mind has been
Where my mind has been
ย
You call out, you call out every time
I pass through the hall
That's where your pictures are
You call out, you call out every time
I sing out a note
There go the words you spoke
ย
And I never thought I'd have
A reason to go back
But as it turns out
What we made is still there
Reflecting off the glass
And stitching up the tears
ย
Hey
ย
You've got one eye on the house
ย
A crooked roof to be straightened out
ย
You keep the other on the sky
A simple life just takes some time
Just takes some time
ย
