niamh bury - budapest lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the sun went down behind the house before the grass could melt
and fingers stiff like icicles, hot coffee helps
the sky is clear but you can’t tell, clever as you are
if what we see when we look up are satellites or stars

[verse 2]
and i just wish they’d leave the moon alone, you know
‘cos when our kids are sleeping, where are they supposed to go?
and for lovers in different cities, a billboard just won’t be as pretty
i wish they could learn to leave good enough alone

[chorus 1]
wrap me in a blanket, and spin me into sp+ce
i want to feel the silence, see that look upon your face
oh, spiraling downward i would lose the race

[verse 3]
i’m still getting ‘round to hearing those songs you sent
it’s not that i didn’t have the time, just knew that their intent
would shake me and make me wish i was somewhere else
so, they stayed with the books i mean to read on the shelf

[verse 4]
and you’ll go to budapest, rent somewhere for a while
maybe learn the language or get by on a smile
lose yourself within that crowd, drink from a different font
they say, “don’t make yourself so small,” sometimes that’s what you want
[chorus 2]
put me in a basket and send me up the river
let the mothers hold me when i cry and shiver
i’m packaged and posted, ready to be delivered
