Let A Little Light In

(الألبوم: Mipso - 2020)

Home movies end to end in the wee hours of the night
You finish one, you start again, but something isn't right
Where's the cereal-filled devil grin and the bannister slide?
Who could've taught him how to hide?

Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

So many wheels to ride in our cul-de-sac sea
We were alive outside
We were students of movement, weren't we?
Another house, another car
It's an endless imitation
Of course we had to learn to race them

Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

Thirteen candles make a ring
For a name to flicker out
The man beside you to the right
What's he got to smile about?
Overeager reds and greens
I remember bright blends
How and when did the sepia seep in?

Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

Home movies end to end in the wee hours of the night
You finish one, you start again, but something isn't right
Where's the cereal-filled devil grin and the bannister slide?
Who could've taught him how to hide?

Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in
