kid scientist - diary of an archaeologist lyrics

[verse 1]
for years, i’ve worked across the hall
now i’ve not said much at all
how i admired your career
but now the time has come
they’re sending me to some
exotic region in the east

the timing’s not quite right
but i know i’d be contrite
if i didn’t tell you now
i loved you since the first
time our fingers interlocked
and daily dreamt how i’d propose

[pre+chorus]
i will wait as long as it takes
to claim the sp+ce of rest right next to yours

[verse 2]
oh, it must be some cosmic trick
we’ll wait to forge on this
i believe that wе must part
i’ve always felt the samе
how i’ve longed to take your name
and i will wait for your return
[pre+chorus]
i will wait as long as it takes
to claim the sp+ce of rest right next to yours

[chorus]
and centuries from now they’ll find our bodies in the ground
dressed with lavender and lace, locked in permanent embrace
scores of scholars and artists will legendize our love
while our souls just tarry blindly above

[interlude]
oh, la+la+da+ba+da+da
oh, la+da+da+la+da+da

[verse 3]
for days, this couple has had malaise
they say a pestilence, you praise
and won’t leave one another’s side
i’m sorry, this sentiment’s morose
but all i thought is when my soul departs
i want you with me too

as a girl i lived upstairs
and we’d often lie awake
counting stars up in the sky
i understand you perfectly
a melancholy it will be
to think they’re up there all alone
[pre+chorus]
i will wait as long as it takes
to claim the sp+ce of rest right next to yours

[chorus]
and centuries from now they’ll find our bodies in the ground
dressed with lavender and lace, locked in permanent embrace
scores of scholars and artists will legendize our love
while our souls just tarry blindly above

[verse 4]
my love, you’ve grown distant
it’s been weeks since you have sent
a tender missive home to me
i know you’ll be home soon
but i’ve been happily h++rding news
i’m pregnant with our child

this letter is my last
the doctors say i have a week
until this plague has won
you’ve never once escaped my thoughts
how valiantly i’ve fought
at last, i’m coming home to you

[pre+chorus]
i will wait as long as it takes
to claim the sp+ce of rest right next to yours
[chorus]
and centuries from now they’ll find our bodies in the ground
dressed with lavender and lace, locked in permanent embrace
scores of scholars and artists will legendize our love
while our souls just tarry blindly
we’ll be together finally
our souls will tarry blindly in love
