Bright Eyes - The Difference in the Shades lyrics
[Bright Eyes - The Difference in the Shades lyrics]
Now that it's June
We'll sleep out in the garden
And if it rains, we'll just sink into the mud
Where it is quiet and much
Cooler than the house is
And there's no clocks or phones to wake us up
Because I have learned that
Nothing is as pressing
As the one's pressing would
Like you to believe
And I am content to walk a little slower
Because there's nowhere that I
Really need to be
And I find that life is easier
When it's just a blur with no details to
Confuse who or what or where I was
So when the ending comes
The full regret will seem obscure
But these are days we dream about
When the sunlight paints us gold
And this apartment could not be prettier
As we danced up there alone
And this TV's old, the color's fucked
You see the difference in the shades?
But the green's still close to green, my love
And I believe we are the same
And we'll stay like this, all gold and green
Light collects
It projects your heart on a movie screen
And if you close your eyes, we will always be
The way we were that night
You crawled inside of me
And you slept in my blood
The way you sleep now
The quietest hush has consumed this house
And when the doctors have gone and
You sweat through the bed
With the pictures and pills they
Piled around your head
But just rest now
And in a moment you'll know everything
Was it all a dream?
It's too vague now to recount
An outline of the one you loved
In a life that was that no longer will be
Stands above you as you sleep
We'll sleep out in the garden
And if it rains, we'll just sink into the mud
Where it is quiet and much
Cooler than the house is
And there's no clocks or phones to wake us up
Because I have learned that
Nothing is as pressing
As the one's pressing would
Like you to believe
And I am content to walk a little slower
Because there's nowhere that I
Really need to be
And I find that life is easier
When it's just a blur with no details to
Confuse who or what or where I was
So when the ending comes
The full regret will seem obscure
But these are days we dream about
When the sunlight paints us gold
And this apartment could not be prettier
As we danced up there alone
And this TV's old, the color's fucked
You see the difference in the shades?
But the green's still close to green, my love
And I believe we are the same
And we'll stay like this, all gold and green
Light collects
It projects your heart on a movie screen
And if you close your eyes, we will always be
The way we were that night
You crawled inside of me
And you slept in my blood
The way you sleep now
The quietest hush has consumed this house
And when the doctors have gone and
You sweat through the bed
With the pictures and pills they
Piled around your head
But just rest now
And in a moment you'll know everything
Was it all a dream?
It's too vague now to recount
An outline of the one you loved
In a life that was that no longer will be
Stands above you as you sleep
