ellis paul - changing your name lyrics

Loading...

i judged the distance
to where you ran your hand through your hair
you were startled for an instant, you said,
“take me home,” and i paid the fare.

and you laughed the laugh of the innocent
as the cab cut a path in the street
as the world swept by with it’s violence
i thought of the shelter we’d find in the sheets…
in the sheets

chorus
i never asked you for nothing like changing your name
i believed we had something here, but nothing ever came
were you thrown by the language, by words that we said
when i told you i loved you
did it get in the way? get in the way?

you lit a candle,
then you poured me a gl-ss of port wine
i pulled the oven handle,
the air felt warm, the scent felt kind

and your kiss could heal like medicine
there ain’t nothing that it can’t overcome
but i could not lean on this evidence,
for fear you’d take the cure and run.
you would run…

chorus

cause love won’t stop to
think about the consequences
turns a fool to stumbling
over people’s fences.

and the moon cut a frown over windy town
but you smiled as you pulled down the shade
and we turned a corner onto holy ground
and got lost in the love we made, that we made…

chorus

get in the way…
