[Verse 1]
I let you lead the way
And made sure nobody was following
The people in this place
Can't seem to keep their tombs from blossoming
And I understand, I get it
Oh wait a minute, I know this game
We hide out 'til after dark
For so close you feel so far
Should never I let down my guard
Until you stay or walk away
[Chorus]
I'd like to know how you think of me now
Send some small sign
Tell me it's safe and I'm on my way
You can take your time
[Verse 2]
Flick, flicking crumbs at tiny little crows
With shadows on the ground, stumbling down an empty road
Take refuge on the roof from the noisy crowd below
Slip slow, and slip past the covers and the smoke
I'll find you in a quiet corner
And keep our distance moving forward
I'll find you in the parking lot
Just so love sparks
We hide out 'til morning light
For so wrong it feels so right
But if I let the liquor talk
Will you stay or walk away?
[Chorus]
I'd like to know how you think of me now
Send some small sign
Tell me it's safe and I'm on my way
You took your time
[Bridge]
I waited there for hours, never got no call
No distant beacon, nothing there to break the fall
I let the water catch me, pull me to the deep
The panic woke me but you were fast asleep
And I adore you and I miss you more than most
But we're the only ones who'll ever see this ghost
Oh you cleared off, never rained
A clean break to ease your pain
Now I'll be the only one
Who can't stay, or walk away
[Outro]
I won't complain or mention your name
Not a farewell
I'm not okay, but I'm on my way
And I won't complain or mention your name
Not a farewell
I'm not okay, but I'm on my way
You'll be off my mind
