Geographer - Verona Lyrics

You call me all the right words
But the right words sound so wrong
You say that I am changing
I guess I will before too long
Will you give me a way out
Or a past to live down?
Either way it couldn't be worse
Than it is now

I'm watching while a wild dog
Makes ripples round and round
Is every single whisper a life that
We should know by now or is it just a sound?
Something keeps a river from
Sinking into the ground
Was I ever any different?
It's the simplest ones, the simplest ones

White lies in the night
If I could be yours then you could be mine
As long as it rhymes
It's all that I'll ever need
I hear white lies in the night
If I could be yours and you could be mine
We keep what we hide
And you told such simple lies

Now that we are free, Verona
Won't you keep me out? Drive me to the city
Where every building shouts
I want to hear some people
I want to leave the windows down
I never will believe you
You should know why by now, whoa

It is the simplest things we want, whoa
But we can never see enough, whoa
And it's the simplest things we want, whoa
And it's the simplest ones
The simplest ones

White lies in the night
If I could be yours then you could be mine
As long as it rhymes
It's all that I'll ever need
I hear white lies in the night
If I could be yours then you could be mine
We keep what we hide
And you told such simple lies
