The Weather Station - Endless Time lyrics
[The Weather Station - Endless Time lyrics]
I wake up in my own bed
The curtains open wide
To let in what light the
Sky has to offer today
It's only the end of an endless time
They don't put that in the paper
You won't hear it on the news
But we knew
It's just like a sunset about to begin
Maybe at first, you can't believe your eyes
The sky all lit with colour and light
It's just the same, as right before you left
We would stay up late, your head on my chest
We were still in love
And the sun went on making
Flowers from the mud
We could walk out on the street
And buy roses from Spain
Lemons and persimmons in December rain
All of our lives it had been that way
But it's only the end of an endless time
They don't put that in the paper you
Won't read it in the news
You have to use your eyes
And it's so painful how everybody lies
Nobody tells it straight
They try so hard not to meet your gaze
We can still walk out on the
Street and buy champagne grapes
Strawberries and lilies in November rain
It never occurred to us to have to pay
But it's only the end of an endless time
We laughed so much we wore
Lines around our eyes
You can see it in that picture of
Us from long ago how we changed
And it happened so slowly
We couldn't even say
I gotta find that picture
I want to look again
I used to think that I could
See everything that met my eyes
