Metaphors

(альбом: San Cisco - 2012)

I'll be waiting out here
Waiting at your door
If you want it
I could try and get you a little little more

I'll break a promise
That I made to you yesterday
I'll never hide from you
Or never try to run run away

I wrote a letter when I met her
And tore out the page
I threw it in a box and
Hid it somewhere far far away

You tell me secrets
And you tell me that you want some more
It's not up to me
To help you try to settle settle scores

I could take you out in the afternoon
Dodge the sharks as we swim to the pontoon
I know it's a metaphor
I know we are still on shore

Light a fire in our lifeboat
Just to keep warm but we won't stay afloat
I know it's a metaphor
I know we are still on shore

You sit inside at home
Expecting that I'll drive you round
I came to pick you up
So you can try and let me let me down
It's so annoying how you hate to put yourself in pain
And disappointing
'Cause it's just a made-up little, little game

I could take you out in the afternoon
Dodge the sharks as we swim to the pontoon
I know it's a metaphor
I know we are still on shore

Light a fire in our lifeboat
Just to keep warm but we won't stay afloat
I know it's a metaphor
I know we are still on shore
