You In January

歌詞

Goddamn, you look holy Hit from behind with light You're a painting of a saint And I'm nervous stumbling over my lines When I tell you I love you And we stare at Catalina A city lost to the sea Carried out by the tide You were the one thing I got right Goddamn, you look holy Bathed in the January light On the floor of our new bedroom On the carpet with the window opened wide When you tell me you love me I can actually see it Your breath frozen in the air Newborn droplets of ice You were the one thing I got right I'm measuring heartbeats in miles away You held me together, I used to burst and decay We got off the airplane, a couple of runaways I was hoping you'd stay Could you stay? You were the obvious one From a taxicab in Chelsea, out past Salvation Mountain You were the obvious one From a walk along the highline, out to Wicker Park in August You were the obvious one From your upper-east side dorm room, to the southwest Marin Headlands With you smiling in the sand Goddamn, I hate leaving Another early flight I ran the dishwasher this morning I wanted there to be clean plates for you tonight I've grown used to your perfume It hangs in the morning light Wake me up before you leave for work Kiss me goodbye You were the one thing I got right I'm measuring heartbeats in miles away You held me together, I used to burst and decay We got off the airplane, a couple of runaways I was hoping you'd stay Could you stay? I'm measuring heartbeats in miles away You held me together, I used to burst and decay We got off the airplane, a couple of runaways I'm glad that you stayed
