Ah ah ah ah-I
wanna go outside
and write your name in sunshine on the backs of both my eyes
I hope you're not surprised
when I use my scarred retinas to stare your scrawled and cursive name onto the dusty surfaces
of things I used to love be-fo-ore you
It's hard but what can I do?
and then I count the days before allowing both my retinas to heal
so I can see your face
in perfect clarity
Oh, I can see
your face in front of me!
and then behind my eyelids I'm with you
imagining the things we're gonna do!
in phosphorescent brown and black and blue
in fine and blinding summer light, with you
Ah ah ah ah-I
didn't even want to know your name
until the sunlight sparkled in your eyes
it took me by surprise
and suddenly the paradigm of thinking I was fine
was shifted into realising that
I needed you all of the time
I needed you all of the time
and when I close my eyelids I'm with you
imagining the things we're gonna do!
in phosphorescent brown and black and bl-oo-oo-ue
in fine and blinding summer light, with you
ah-oo
ah-oo oo oo oo oo oo
oo oo
when I'm behind my eyelids
I'm with you (yea…)
imaginging the things we're gonna do!
in phosphorescent brown and black and blue-oo-oo-ue
in fine and blinding summer light with you.
