Postcard

The lazy blue of the ocean Cigarette smoke drifts across the sun It forms a lasso and pulls it down Oh so slowly And paints the seaside sky with gold I'm just bracing for it to come undone When I remember the things we said and the things we've done I'm losing all this time I thought was mine to use My body's here in paradise but I'm still there with you Time floats by in this sleepy town But I can't sleep at all With your voice ringing through my head Oh so sweetly Like a church bell singing over the cliffs Now I'm just bracing for it to come undone When I remember the things we said and the things we've done I'm losing all this time I thought was mine to use My body's here in paradise but I'm still there with you Do you think of me however briefly in the cold back home? When the winter wind takes ahold of your skin with an icy hand Because my coat's not around your shoulders anymore My coat's not around your shoulders anymore Now I'm just bracing for it to come undone When I remember the things we said and the things we've done I'm losing all this time I thought was mine to use My body's here in paradise but I'm still there with you
