Daphne Loves Derby - To Struggle With Light Colors lyrics

A violet night kept you alive But you never had the will to stay here I was possessed by your eyes But you fell asleep most of the time So I learned to speak myself While you were in dreams somewhere else so..... Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh) I'll find a way to sing somehow Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow She always said I was too silent And I never found the words to entertain her Maybe I tried just too hard to always be clever While she always starved for simple words to keep her safe To keep her safe Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh) I'll find a way to sing somehow Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow Maybe maybe if I don't see you now I'll keep myself shattered somehow Oh in every way, every way somehow A man who speaks with a silver tongue Yes he whispered to me something sweet that swept me away I sold your soul to a pack of wolves For two pounds of pride and a lifetime supply of regrets Regrets A violet night kept you alive But you never had the will to stay here Maybe it's all for the best So darling don't lose any sleep over me Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh) I'll find a way to sing somehow Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow Maybe maybe if I don't see you now I'll keep myself shattered somehow Oh in every way, every way somehow
