lyrics

And you signed your letter “love,” because every other word fit ridiculously
Saying you’ll make someone so very lucky someday, just not me
And I choked out the same
With fumbling eloquence
I‘d do it all again to spend this slice of time by your side
That night - will always be our time

Where the staircase ends and the rushes steep
Where the wayward ships tore starboard seams
And we were luffing landlocked in the eye of the song
It will always be our calm

There’s the one you stitched
And the one you starved
There's the one you soothed
And the one you left and hollow tore apart
You cannot quell what you cannot reach
And you cannot love what you cannot mean

Though enraptured in veil and circumstance
Drunk with love and a knowing ignorance
When the notes hum long through someone else’s arms
No, it will always be our song

When my children cry and they don’t call for you
And I don’t see your eyes in the reflection for so long I thought I knew
The plans we dreamed and the names we gave
And the memory leak and the notions fade

When they plant my grave and you rest miles away
With your missing piece, without memory
Still some sallow comfort lingers in the pressing of the dawn
For unto no one it belongs

Oh the ink is running
Regrets and salutations, black and blue
Oh the engine humming
White noise between strangers and I do

There’s the one you stitched
And the one you starved
There's the one you soothed
And the one you left and hollow tore apart
You cannot quell what you cannot reach
And you cannot love what you cannot mean

Still, you signed your letter “love,”
And you signed your letter, love.
And you signed your letter
