d**h Cab For Cutie - I Was a Kaleidoscope (live) lyrics

I put on my overcoat And walked into winter My teeth chattered rhythms And they were grouped in twos or threes Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me And cars on slippery slopes were stuck People pushing through their mittens As I was beginning To feel it soaking through my shoes Getting colder with every step I took to your apartment, dear And I was a kaleidoscope The snow on my lenses distorting the image Of what was only one of you And I didn't know which one to address As all your lips moved And this is when I forget to breathe And all the things I scripted They sound unfounded And it's the look that your giving me That tells me exactly what you are thinking: "This ain't working out" They got their mothers worked in to a panic Sledding down hills into oncoming traffic And parents layered clothes until the children couldn't move And then left them outside until their noses were blue And I got left there, too I put on my overcoat And walked into winter My teeth chattered rhythms And they were grouped in twos or threes Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me
