HYD

(album: FLOWERS for VASES / descansos - 2021)

When the air is quiet
And the sky is blue
I can't help
Being reminded of you

When the air is quiet
And the sky is blue
I can't help
Being reminded of you

And how your eyes are shut
So you cannot see
Just how very close
I keep you to me

And in that dark little place you have made
You'd swear all these pretty clouds are grey
I wonder how you're doing
How you're doing now

In a million years
Never thought I'd see
The day you would choose your fear over me
'Cause many storms have come
And if not for you
I'd have been struck down
Disappeared at sea
I know it's hard for you
To take a compliment
But my life began
The day that you came in it

I wonder how you view me how
You view me now

On a night like this
It's just me and the kid
And there's a chair for you where you'd always sit
And we would talk for hours about the dumbest shit
And you would always start my cigarette

I wonder if you ever quit
Like you wanted
I bet you did
I bet you did
I bet you did
I bet you did
How you doing?
