lyrics

you look so weary from a distance
you breathe out old age
behind your eyes there's a shadow
darkenin' your face

why are you crying like a desert?
why are you bleeding like a stone?
when will you find that even sad things are better
when you're not so alone?

what could my mouth say to you
to change your mind?
and if my lips explored you
what would they find?

am i just crazy or are you petrified, dear
by the sight of my skin?
what happened to the days we used to tell each other
what we were thinkin'?

it's been a winter since i've had a sunburn
it's been an autumn too
it's been a summer since i've had a lover
oh i almost had you

what could my mouth say to you
to change your mind?
oh if my lips explored you
what would they find?

what could my mouth say to you
to change your mind?
oh if my lips explored you
what would they find?
what would they find?
what would they find?
