Old Loves
When we walked along the fences, were you looking for a way out?
The tortoise shells in the ditches, are empty as your little arms now
So when did it get so dim?
What put slack in our limbs?
Did you leave what you knew?
Did you bury what you outgrew like your mother talks about old loves?
She says when I think nothing is true I remember their names
And how they'd say mine
But you don't need to be that kind
So let 'em hear your shoulders move when you sing about their houses
Let 'em hear your shoulders move when they see your name
Do your journal's little fictions brim every time you think of me?
Or have the pages all since vacated, left their things outside my head
So I can hear your shoulders move, I can hear your shoulders move
But I wanna see you
The color that our shirts turned in the dead of your stuffy room
When we were looking for a way out, always bent on bluer moons
So how do you stay so calm
When the whole worlds taking arms?
Did you leave what you knew?
Did you bury what you outgrew
Like your mother laughs about old loves?
She says "if i could find all the tape, I'd keep every frame"
And let nothing go to waste
So let 'em hear your shoulders move when you sing about their houses
Let 'em hear your shoulders move when they see your name
I can hear you shoulders move, I can hear you shoulders move
But I wanna see you
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
The tortoise shells in the ditches, are empty as your little arms now
So when did it get so dim?
What put slack in our limbs?
Did you leave what you knew?
Did you bury what you outgrew like your mother talks about old loves?
She says when I think nothing is true I remember their names
And how they'd say mine
But you don't need to be that kind
So let 'em hear your shoulders move when you sing about their houses
Let 'em hear your shoulders move when they see your name
Do your journal's little fictions brim every time you think of me?
Or have the pages all since vacated, left their things outside my head
So I can hear your shoulders move, I can hear your shoulders move
But I wanna see you
The color that our shirts turned in the dead of your stuffy room
When we were looking for a way out, always bent on bluer moons
So how do you stay so calm
When the whole worlds taking arms?
Did you leave what you knew?
Did you bury what you outgrew
Like your mother laughs about old loves?
She says "if i could find all the tape, I'd keep every frame"
And let nothing go to waste
So let 'em hear your shoulders move when you sing about their houses
Let 'em hear your shoulders move when they see your name
I can hear you shoulders move, I can hear you shoulders move
But I wanna see you
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
