lyrics

Sometimes I feel the cold breeze of your stare
Sometimes I trace the whispers that lay there in the corners of your heart
I fold them down
Pocket their sounds
To carry them all around, all around me
And your voice drips water
In my rear view mirror
A soothing tea for a Sunday weather

But I don't think I could be what you want me to be
And I don't think that the Moon could ever outshine your bloom

I got a sense we could walk through the light
Hold you down at night
Caress your thighs
Got a picture of my reality
Carved out in my memory
I'll try and consider me
The colorless tapestry
You bring out the best in me
But the songs of the birds don't reach the sea

Cause I don't think I could be what you want me to be
But I don't think that the Moon could ever outshine your bloom

But if I'm being honest I wanna bask in your glory
I wanna swim in your story
And savor all there is to see

Cause I don't think that the Moon could ever outshine your bloom
I don't think it ever will
