Sweetface

We said hello that day it happened on a whim
And then our fingers did the talking
And here we are swimming in the unknown
Too late now on me you've grown

So here's to a different philosophy
And something closer to the ordinary

You might get tired of these translations
Before the winds they change direction
How much longer might we have to wait before
Before the planes they take off next

We'll build a boat if all else fails
And closer to me you say you'll sail

Pictures, packages, smiles and surprises
Your one last cigarette the sun rises
The crickets and the morning birds they sing away
'Cause we forget the time and day

So here's to something less complicated
Here's to the cure to keep me grounded

You might get tired of these translations
Before the winds they change direction
How much longer might we have to wait before
Before the planes they take off next

We'll build a boat if all else fails
And closer to me you say you'll sail

When we speak of the universe and the stars
5000 something miles doesn't seem that far
I can't wait to see you mon ami
Until I finally have you near me

So here's to something to learn of patience
And the new song that you put on the pixie playlist
