What Can You Say
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What can you say to remind me
How to be loved by you?
Wave to the winding
River, it's a view of you
For the long grass growing in silence
There's an equal knowing inside us
Calmly showing for to guide us
Pray you can find me
I've been busy turning into
More transparent
I could look a lot like you
For the sharp glass cutting of the cold wind
The sharp glass losing of your best friend
The story bruising as it's written
Rain in your bedroom
This is how I love you back
To follow the red moon
Follow her and never look back
There's a star that's glowing on your eyelash
And the wet light moaning as we rehash
Oh, my darling
What can you say to remind me
How to be loved by you?
