dalton deschain & the traveling show - the approximate girl lyrics

Loading...

the first time that they met he caught her gazing at the night sky
she said, “if you think i’m beautiful, you’ve never watched a star die”
she had a quote from tristan tzara tattooed on her like an anklet
he traced its letters with his fingers ’til she whispered “boy you’ll break it”

and oh, miss harlowe
how’s a dame like you flying solo?

she set to sail one summer leaving love along the shoreline
seasick solitudе that comes with chasing distant satellites
tеlegraphs come crackling in her head when it gets late
repeating over again
“hey elizabeth, can’t you see he’s over it?”

she used to kiss him deeply but pull back when he’d hold her
she’d sneak into a party and jitterbug with soldiers
she talked of moving west and happiness would surely meet her there
with her head upon his chest just like his heartbeat wasn’t even there

oh, miss harlowe
why’s a dame like you lying so low?

life flows ’round like water endless sea in all directions
troubled tufts of stars dissolve when fingers intersect them
she splashes forward desperately
the light she sailed her life to reach
reflections, nothing more
catherine elizabeth, captain of a sinking ship

hey elizabeth, can’t you see he’s over it?
catherine elizabeth, captain of a sinking ship
hey elizabeth, i can’t believe you’re needing him
catherine elizabeth, you know you’re better than this

hey elizabeth, what’d you stop believing in?
find where your power is and flip it like a rocker switch
hey elizabeth, just change the tide you’re drowning in
catherine elizabeth, the last one on a sinking ship

catherine elizabeth
hey elizabeth
oh, catherine elizabeth
