Geographer - Night Winds lyrics

A photograph and whisper Find me in the night Like the sound of sad dolls Wishing they could cry Something only we know Underneath street lights Shadows make things easy So I made you mine This would be so simple If you were fast asleep And all the bottles you throw They would be lost at sea You could take my letters And rearrange the words You could read them backwards Until you liked what you heard If I could know what they know We could sell this gold And I could wear your halo With the nights grow cold You could wish my child's eyes Would turn to clouds and part And I could wish that I lied When I said I lost your heart [Chorus] So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say If only last December Had stayed beneath the snow I hear your muffled laughter After the curtains close But to the sound of night winds In the dark you grope Try to find some likeness Under my wrinkled clothes [Chorus] So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say So long the days That melt away So long the words You could not say
