At 3 a.m. on the dock
When we both couldn't talk
And then we...
...Quietly...
Both held hands.
Mmmm
Like just starting to breathe
I could finally believe
In relief...
And the grief...
All be damned.
Mmmm
Can I come over?
Is this all right?
Can I see you again?
Are you alone tonight?
Slowly you behaved more coldly
When you could have just told me
That a text...
from your ex...
Said 'hello'.
Mmmm
Alarmless intuition
Had not one suspicion
Hide and seek...
For a week...
Then a ghost.
Mmmm
Can I come over?
Is this all right?
Can I see you again?
Are you alone tonight?
Reaching with phantom arms
Into embracing harm
Mmmm
A lover's abandoned post
It aches like a holy ghost
Mmmm
At 3 a.m. three weeks after
Said it'd been a disaster
Suddenly...
needed me...
There and then.
Mmmm
If I let it show
What it took to say no
Then you see...
You and me...
Are never again.
So no I can't come over
This is us now, you and I
Don't come looking for me again
Because this has to be goodbye.
Mmmm
Reaching with phantom arms
Into embracing harm
Mmmm
A lover's abandoned post
It aches like a holy ghost
Mmmm
