[00:02.24]"it's so beautiful here" she says
[00:05.47]"this moment now and this moment now"
[00:13.79]And i never thought i would find her here:
[00:20.11]Flannel and satin my four walls transformed
[00:27.50]But she's looking at me straight to center
[00:32.88]No room at all for any other thought
[00:39.35]And i know i don't want this oh i swear i don't want this
[00:47.82]There's a reason not to want this but i forgot
[01:01.15]In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder
[01:06.07]Hair falling forward mouth all askew
[01:12.96]Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead:
[01:18.47]"passengers missing we're looking for you"
[01:24.63]And she dreams through the noise her weight against me
[01:29.90]Face pressed into the corduroy grooves
[01:36.21]Maybe it means nothing maybe it means nothing
[01:44.23]Maybe it means nothing but i'm afraid to move
[02:14.46]And the words: they're everything and nothing
[02:19.13]I want to search for her in the offhand remarks
[02:23.63]Who are you taking coffee no sugar
[02:30.77]Who are you echoing street signs
[02:35.99]Who are you the stranger in the shell of a lover
[02:42.22]Dark curtains drawn by the passage of time
[02:48.08]Oh words like rain how sweet the sound
[02:58.63]"well anyway" she says"i'll see you around"
