lyrics

We spent a day on the floor
Cutting pictures up
There was talk of more
There was a hint of love

You asked if I would leave with you
If you went on the road
I said I couldn't go
So you went on your own

I wish that I'd gone along
To see your pretty face some more
I wish that I'd gone along
You'd sing your songs, I'd play guitar

Now your face is haunting me
The picture we cut up
You're terrified and beautiful
Like you'd seen a ghost

Your eyes, they follow me
I see them in a crowd
Oh how I hope they belong to you
I can't put mine down

I wish that I'd gone along
To see your pretty face some more
I wish that I'd gone along
You'd sing your songs, I'd play guitar

You are the sound that moves through me
And I want some more
The current alternates
You leave me on the floor

I wish that I'd gone along
To see your pretty face some more
I wish that I'd gone along
You'd sing your songs, I'd play guitar
