Forgive me my ties, connections and loose ends
|
This is for the eyes buried in my neck
|
With a promise of the future, of the uncertain I play it so sure
|
Our drifting thing will someday land
|
|
And I could take you home
|
The lights would twitch and blow
|
And you could finally see
|
The "us" that we're supposed to be
|
|
When you picture me away, It's Alfie Elkins '66
|
But you didn't see my face when all the kids dancing brought down that place
|
I was more Alvy Singer
|
Each time you put me on the train I'm less and less sure you'll do it again
|
Don't do it again
|
|
'Cuz we could raise our flag
|
First hem the tattered edge
|
Close our eyes and be
|
In love at seventeen
|
(Close) Close our eyes and be
|
(Close) Close our eyes and be
|
(Close) Close our eyes and be in love at seventeen
|
