Loving You Well

It's hard to find a friend
it's hard to love
It's easy to pretend and make it up
My body is no body, my tired mind
Gotta stop myself from thinking all the time
of the forest fires all around
The deep, dark mines where I fell

But it's the silent nights, oh when you're sleeping
that I can't help but ask, oh am i treating you well?

The busted brutal beating of the clock
A day, a year, a decade, shaved off
I find it so damn hard to turn around and see
the miles stretching back behind me
the race is on, to be faster
because speed is all, that they sell

But it's the silent nights oh when you're sleeping
either fast or slow, am I loving you well?

It's the future now
like you never imagined
So much has changed, everything is the same
your voice is deep, your eyeare pure silver
and the children smile from the photo frames
and there's a steadiness to the noises
Just a creaking house, I can live with myself

In the slient nights, we're both deep sleeping
but we're holding hands, i'm loving you well
