The Walkabouts - Thin Of The Air lyrics

I could see you weren't from here You didn't run the same way back I could never forget you The simple physics of your laugh "No one really knows this place What we say feels vaporous" Sounding like the ring of truth Every time you tell me this If I can't think for one of us Shouldn't think for two of us Surely don't know what is right But it don't seem Worth the fuss Told you every thing I saw It was ravaged, it was burned Told you everything I saw And now sugar, it's your turn You better bet That I've memorized Every stitch of the road Driving fast Through the rusted trees I lift my hands and let go You say your heart has been vandalized But I guess fair is fair For our crimes we will be condemned Into the thin of the air We can split the difference We can split the hairs of it But in the end We must admit We've been too deliberate I tell you that I'm wide awake Sayin' "yes" to great unknowns I tell you that I'm wide awake And now sugar it's your turn Take me down so I don't fail you Take me down so I don't fail
