altar
Fresh white flowers and a new tea light
Nine cups of water, still water
Soon I'll see your face
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away
I should've known better
If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you'rе closer, closer, whoa, whoa
Holdin' on to things you told me
Holdin' on to drеams you showed me
Holdin' on to anything from you
That you've been leaving here
Now I believe I swear
I can smell your perfume
Picking up your signal like a phonebooth
Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to
If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa (now you're closer)
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa, whoa (closer)
Nine cups of water, still water
Soon I'll see your face
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away
I should've known better
If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you'rе closer, closer, whoa, whoa
Holdin' on to things you told me
Holdin' on to drеams you showed me
Holdin' on to anything from you
That you've been leaving here
Now I believe I swear
I can smell your perfume
Picking up your signal like a phonebooth
Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to
If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa (now you're closer)
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer, closer, whoa, whoa (closer)
