lyrics

dear estranged lover,
I think for you this is just another week
but your smell still lingers on my mattress
videos of warm ignorant bliss
from you and me

think you've burned my letters
worn-out tomes of cheap philosophy
how many more hardened verses
how many more choruses will it take for you to believe?

now I still feel it while I drive
numb and green to buy some groceries

dear estranged lover,
maybe my sin was just to want it all
to be the soothing when you breathe
to be the comfort when you lay back sick
on sunday noons
like you are to me

do you still feel it while you try
to scrap the plans, start yet again

and now young mystery's your friend
pushing your button, erasing me
your skin of sun and scent of sea
smiling to the Polaroid
the scene that took my breath away
radiant shelter after a busy day

dear estranged lover,
I know that you would break before you bend
now we are at poles apart
and I cling to routine to see me through another week

well, you see
it was your dream, the one you threw away
waking up smeling of lilies
going back to bed to spend the day
or just hear me say
how I love your way
take care
