All That We Asked For

(album: Skellig - 2021)

We're setting our clocks for the summer
We're spilled out like foam on the sand
And it's all that we asked for and more
Well it's all that we asked for and more

The first light it came like a warning
This moment is all that you own
It's all that we asked for and more
Well it's all that we asked for and more

A lump in my throat to remember
The day I was just seventeen
She peeled back her chest like a curtain
And her heart was translucent and green
And it's all that we asked for and more
Well it's all that we asked for and more
Yeah it's all that we asked for

And if these walls could talk
Think they might have a thing or two to tell
About all the rain drenched
Songs that rang
And tears that fell

The thoughts in my head are like tinder
And your eyes are like flint on a stone
And it's all that we asked for and more
Well it's all that we asked for and more
Yeah it's all that we asked for and more
Well It's all that we asked for and more
