Scene
Here we are and there I'm standing
Bold and brash and drunk
On all your honeyed words
And we're racing to fall down
We've barely even met
But the dye is setting quick
And the colours overflowing
Will spill across the floor
And lay there until they spoil
And you will tell me when you're older
Of how you always know when love will leave or grow
The streets are so wild now
And I can't see for the crowd
I can't make you out in all this
But I guess that's what you wished
So you'll fall out of your sides dear
And I'll catch it all
I'll catch what I can hold in my hands
But I still won't understand
In the half-light we'll live
And time will wait for us
In the half-light, we'll die
And time will stop for us
Oh, in the half-light
So I'll lay down where you're resting
Old and crass and drunk
And dream of both of us
And the stories they will write dear
Are bond in verse and hymn
We were bright, brilliant things
We can step back into focus
Or it will all be forgotten
Move to me, come closer
Let it pass over and over
And the surly bonds of earth here
We'll slip them like ribbon
Slip them and run
Free and fast
We'll fade into the high grass
We'll fade into the past
Bold and brash and drunk
On all your honeyed words
And we're racing to fall down
We've barely even met
But the dye is setting quick
And the colours overflowing
Will spill across the floor
And lay there until they spoil
And you will tell me when you're older
Of how you always know when love will leave or grow
The streets are so wild now
And I can't see for the crowd
I can't make you out in all this
But I guess that's what you wished
So you'll fall out of your sides dear
And I'll catch it all
I'll catch what I can hold in my hands
But I still won't understand
In the half-light we'll live
And time will wait for us
In the half-light, we'll die
And time will stop for us
Oh, in the half-light
So I'll lay down where you're resting
Old and crass and drunk
And dream of both of us
And the stories they will write dear
Are bond in verse and hymn
We were bright, brilliant things
We can step back into focus
Or it will all be forgotten
Move to me, come closer
Let it pass over and over
And the surly bonds of earth here
We'll slip them like ribbon
Slip them and run
Free and fast
We'll fade into the high grass
We'll fade into the past
