Lyrics
And your body on the bedsheets
Just a blessing from above
Wrote to the lord heavy handed with thanks
I feel the pedal buds and our bodies rub
I trim them fingertips to finger paint
Speakin' of love
Yeah ain't that f- cleanse
Let me tell you it's 3 in the mornin'
I'm just after an empty bottle
After a cigarette, whiskey stain before I topple
Onto what I'm calling as I'm sober as the judge
Replies judging the heart like if it's torn and not enough
Or if this heart has taken a right fist
Being blown back to the rough
Other one you're looking for it
'Cause your a fan of the broken stuff
So let me stay awhile and I'll just wait right here
Between memories of him
Just my memories of her
Now let me linger from a distance
Check steps and watch your pain
Watch you step stepping like prince on the perfect purple rain
It's all the same
So I'll hang around for some time
But she says "Now listen love it's a long walk to the exit sign"
It's just a one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
Just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
I watch you leave and hard to see
I never said goodbye 'cause
It was one long walk to the exit sign
It's just a one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
Just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
I watch you leave and hard to see
I never said goodbye 'cause
It was one long walk
Yeah we'll speak in the morning
Sunken dreams of better times
Find the strength of morning coffee
Call it's debts the daily grind
And then we find
A smaller space for speaking truth
Kiss around my edges till all my dreams are feeling smooth
So let me hold you in the morning
'Bout as late on drunken nights
Push back to the dark 'cause it's hard when the sky is light
Pull back the set of curtains
Let the world in for a walk
He may have said the same 3 words
But it's different the way I talk (it is)
Different the way I speak
Yeah, I love public or in secret
I know it's out there and lives 'cause when I look at you I see it
One long goodbye, now it's the sweetest hello
Find inside the morning after a bottle of bedside bore dough
Lows with the highs and the cool side of the pillow
No it's all just pillowtalk 'cause in the end I really know
It's just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
Just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
I watch you leave and hard to see
I never said goodbye 'cause
It was one long walk to the exit sign
It's just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
Just a, one walk, a long walk to the exit sign
I watch you leave and hard to see
I never said goodbye 'cause
It was one long walk
And cryin' out you wish you said some more
Or maybe less is more?
Looking to sleep to forget
Well tell me what's your bedding for?
Love's a metaphor
Sat next to waxed doors
Pictures and loose coins are the real now of my dresser drawer
But when I'm dressed down
And drawn out it's love that impresses more
Life's to a passing change and you're not passed the pain
Waxed statues fixed but you melt by a naked flame
I took thoughts and stake a claim
And that ain't the way she was blamed
Love's the longest goodbye you wear that name with a stain
Oh it's a pain (yeah it's tough)
Holding on to someone else
May not be his lips but riches at lips are to help
I may not hold his kiss but still wishes and lips to be felt
Hold your quick with his lips and now think of your perfect self
I wanna melt (way down)
Into that deep floor with you
See more than before and wanna be more
that's perfect too
A long walk for us
A long walk for trust
A long walk for 2, and you know that I love you the most
(You know that I love you the most)
