Eugene歌词

Light struck from the lemon tree

What if I'd never seen hysterical light from Eugene?

Lemon yoghurt, remember I pulled at your shirt
I dropped the ashtray on the floor

I just wanted to be near you

Emerald Park, wonders never cease

The man who taught me to swim, he couldn't quite say my first name

Like a Father he led community water on my head
And he called me Subaru

And now I want to be near you

Since I was old enough to speak I've said it with alarm

Some part of me was lost in your sleeve
Where you hid your cigarettes

No I'll never forget

I just want to be near you

Still I pray to what I cannot see

In the sprinkler I mark the evidence known from the start

From the bed near your death, and all the machines that made a mess
Far away the falcon flew

Now I want to be near you

What's left is only bittersweet

For the rest of my life, admitting the best is behind me

Now I'm drunk and afraid, wishing the world would go away
What's the point of singing songs

If they'll never even hear you?
