lyrics

I don't know what way they said it should go
So light the windows high
A snap of time, bewildered and mild
Has crept through the blinds

It's just like a plane
Wake the nights and thread the days
Things you can't explain
Count your dreams and dream the days
Peel your skin and fade away
Things you can't explain
Tender box of rain

Try to find a place to sit and dream
Hazy and not exactly sure
Which language to use
There's not enough water for your steps
To be washed by
Watch the banks grow softer if they can

Four nights of an open, hungry window
That's what I'm gonna know
Four days of careless forgetful talk
Angels lying low

And it's just like a dream
Count the days and dream the winds
Long forgotten sins
Scattered magic in the wind
Voices lost behind a tree
Long forgotten sins
Tender box of pins

Try to find a place to sit and dream
Hazy and not exactly sure
Which language to use
There's not enough water for your steps
To be washed by
Watch the banks grow softler if they can

"Renaut’s voice is more unique and bewitching than her contemporaries or influences." (Eric Shea) ... more
