AbAb Bb majorBb
Nose to nose I hold you so close in the moment
AbAb Bb majorBb
Though I know I feel it slipping away
AbAb Bb majorBb
I told you to shut your mouth when you started talking
AbAb Bb majorBb
About passing years passing days
AbAb Bb majorBb
I've been having visions of you as a baby
AbAb Bb majorBb
Maybe part of it is all in my head
AbAb Bb majorBb
I don't think I understand time as a line
AbAb Bb majorBb
I wasn't meant to live it like this I guess
Bb majorBb AbAb
And I don't know how you people do it
Bb majorBb AbAb
See it all without the urge to fall right through it

Crack open a photo book sit alone at 20 and look for a sign that I was there

Of total obsoletion dust and despair

And still I hope, although I know I’m never gonna get it all back

Every day I spend in the sun I waste thinking of

What will come when it’s time for the moon

If I have to love you I don't know how to do it

Without holding on too tight

And I don't want to leave you but I might
Bb majorBb AbAb
Only 'cause I don't know how to do this right

Fake omnipotence so I can crawl back into bed
