Living In Your Letters
(album: The Swiss Army Romance)
I´m always assuming the worst,
but you´re going on nonetheless
and there´s nothing to cushion your heart led fall.
Letters from further away
keep pulling me close to home.
And there´s something to cushion my callous sighs.
And I know that you hope for
longer good-byes
embracing for forever
and falling in your eyes.
(In your eyes, your eyes)
Pouring over photographs.
I´m living in your letters.
Breathe deeply from this envelope
it smells like you and I can´t be
without that scent. It´s filling me
with all you mean to me.
(To me)
Continually failing these trials
but you stand by me nonetheless
and you won´t let me sink
though I´m beggin you, I´m begging you
Phone calls from further away
and messages on my machine,
but I don´t ever tell you this distance
seems terrible.
There is no need to test my heart,
with useless space.
These roads go on forever,
there will always be a place, for you.. in my heart
So I´ll hit the pavement
it´s gotta be better than waiting
and pushing you far away
cause I´m scared.
So I´ll take my chances
and head on my way up there.
´Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you´re ten.
