Perfectly out of Time
Lyrics
You chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved apart from us
Can't go moving on
Comes in tidal waves, slipping back
Holding what you can
Of past in the waiting
Of future recalled from another home
Where you could dance
As the saints were marching in
Show me how it started
Just as I'd lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
When the moon covers the sun
And turns red as warm blood
I'd have turned to you
Without fear of what's to come
Knowing that as the rest melts away
It would have felt like it always had,
Resolved to oblivion
But you chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved in part for us
Can't go moving on
Comes in tired ways, turning back
As though decisions made before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born
So tired of waiting to get back to where we already were
Where was I when we fell from them to us?
So show me how it started
Just as I'd lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(In fear of what you'd say)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide away)
