A flame doesn't dance, it survives
Flickers madly in an eye
A wave that crashes, not lapse
It's much too much, it's so fast
It's so fast

Waitin' by the little front gate
And the flower boxes I made
My love it gathers in a cloud
And all at once it rains down
It's all down

Ya know I never quite feel right
In the afternoon
And so I wait until midnight
Until I speak to you


Tell me about the blues
I'll tell you I got ?em too
In these late moments tell the truth

(Bridge)

Ya know I never quite feel right
In the afternoon
And so I wait until midnight
Until I speak to you

Tell me about the blues
I'll tell you I got ?em too
In these late moments tell the truth (2x)

And I think that you're angry too
And I think that you love me too
