So Bright

Blood fills the cloudy ledge and blesses ma heart
It’s a bad photo but it helps me remember our faces
We join the outline against the sky: another one for the book
But either side of the photo it’s really dyin’

Blood keeps us murmurin’
Light drains the view
Crawls up the sand and into the shells that will
Go on sighing without me and you
But maybe one of these days, somebody’s child
Is gonna outlast all these views

It’s all right
So right
It’s so nice
The ends soon die
So bright

Pain is soaked up in growth
And girl I’m a real sponge, you know
She said, “keep ya voice down
I’m lyin’ right next to you!”
Sometimes ma busy heart’s away for days
And I don’t feel a thing
And I don’t mean to be so quietly cold

While I’m no optimist
I’ve got the hope
Time and love entwine and sound like the song
In the wedding scene of Fandango
It gets me every time he says
“The best man’s gotta dance too, ya know.”

It’s all right
So right
It’s so nice
The ends soon die
So bright

It’s so right
So right
It’s so nice
The ends all die
So bright

It’s all right
So right
It’s so nice
The ends soon die
So bright

It’s so right
So right
It’s so nice
The ends all die
So bright

Colour Waits in the Dark
