luigi saracino & guy maisonneuve - counting backwards lyrics
counting backwards
what if you tried to tell me in not so many words?
but while you were sleeping i listened to you dream
i’m at the station counting down, my sense of timing says turn around
i see you smiling at me this speechification to which i’m pr-ne
my dissertation will unfold and hopefully explain
part of the story, long forgotten, while i stare at the street rolling by
and i have trouble pr-nouncing, or moving mountains
as johnny cash sings that i still miss someone
it was only yesterday that i promised to let you down
by the time i’m done changing shape
counting backwards just the same was no way to keep you around
losing ground in all this breathing sp-ce
i’ve learned that answers very rarely help you sleep
some questions have no answers
except for the ones in which we already believe
this dedication you have shown, i’ll fold the maps, and hold the phone and we’ll be on our way
while unnamed stars and astronauts
are thinking otherworldly thoughts
i smile and wave
part of the story, long forgotten, while i stare at the street rolling by
and i have trouble pr-nouncing, or moving mountains
as johnny cash sings that i still miss someone
it was only yesterday that i promised to let you down
by the time i’m done changing shape
counting backwards just the same was no way to keep you around
losing ground in all this breathing sp-ce
