I want to take your hand Slide my fingers between yours Palm to palm And mute all of the dissonant chords I want to know what this is This lonliness that feels so free I know I can't keep you And you know that you can't keep me And now I'm thinking that I should've sung you Happy birthday, softly with my lips against your ear So I'll do it in my mind now and I'll do it in the flesh If we're together today next year Next year I want to let you sleep But I can't seem to keep still enough You say this way You fall faster and harder in love I want to take your picture As you look the other way Capture the goodbye That goodbye cannot say
