Battin' Lashes

(album: Applefork - 2013)

I saw you in the evening sun
You weren't afraid of anyone
The sky was painted out of phase
So count the words; so drown the haze

I saw you in the evening sun
You weren't afraid of anyone
The sky was painted out of phase
So count the words; so drown the haze

Lying on the road as whispers pierce the clouds above
You've got to stay
You got to stay
'Cause I've been thinking about you each and every day

Overcast and dreaming all tumultuously
Take it all back because I saw the sun inside
Saw every little thing you left behind

Deliria beneath the skin
Those flightless eyes are sinking in
So tell the floor; so tell the walls
It takes the climb to learn to fall

Deliria beneath the skin
Those flightless eyes are sinking in
So tell the floor; so tell the walls
It takes the climb to learn to fall

Lying on the road as whispers pierce the clouds above
You've got to stay
You got to stay
'Cause I've been thinking about you each and every day

Overcast and dreaming all tumultuously
Take it all back because I saw the sun inside
Saw every little thing you left behind

Don't try and convince me sweetly; let me collapse completely, babe
As warm as a plate of ashes, we were just batting lashes, babe
From over your shoulder you could feel me adore you
You could feel me adore you, girl, from over your shoulder
We were trembling softly by the shore it's something in those eyes

So light it up and show the way
'Cause I've been thinking about you each and every day
Those little words will have to stay
Because of all you had to say

Lying on the road as whispers pierce the clouds above
You've got to stay
You got to stay
'Cause I've been thinking about you each and every day

Overcast and dreaming all tumultuously
Take it all back because I saw the sun inside
Saw every little thing you left behind
