Change of Plans

lyrics

Listen to me dear
Too my greatest fear.
You’ll soon be leaving.
I’ll soon believe it,

But late at night you made your choice
I try to make the best of it.

We try to believe you’re better off alone.

The art of sinking
Bury my feelings.
Under the floorboards
To last the winter

And now and then we’ll speak again
I’ll take them out and show them off.

But they are so cold from being underground.

I’d prefer that
you not stay here.
Take your time I’ll
Try to stay clear.
And I’d like to say that
I’ll be waiting
When you get back,
And I hope I’m right.

We’re wasting your time
Forget you’re leaving.
Enjoy the daylight
Forget ‘bout evening.

And polish a pearl
It’s coming out of its shell
And as we fight to the teeth
It’s in our pocket, we got it,

It’s gone.

A mysterious disease we may never find a cure.
