Futures

Bring down the cool, gray water

Voice went back on along

Need to change that filter

Where are those leaves blowing from?

Goes in a pile by the pool house

Watching the glass by your shoes

Like I'm swimming in seltzer

Diving into the blue

You never mentioned leaving

Just been up there speaking with your boy

A little place near morrow

Staring at the sea

But I'm still tryna stop your shadow slipping down the hallway

Like a train that I can't catch

Left the city here the same as always

I always think too much

Waited to run till the rain comes down

Never get home if you don't strike out

I've loved you like you'll never know

Where do all those futures go?

As long as the snow keeps falling

I'm in no rush to get back

Try to find my own temple

'Cause this city never wakes up

Tryna keep warm in this raincoat

Couple of books in my bag

Threw a coin in the fountain

Still listening out for the splash

I never saw you leaving

But I know you had some good years with your boy

Up on your own tomorrow

Staring at the sea

But I'm still tryna stop your shadow slipping down the hallway

Like a train that I can't catch

Left me sitting here the same as always

I always think too much

Waited to run till the rain comes down

Never get home if you don't strike out

I've loved you like you'll never know

Where do all those futures go?

Waited to run 'till the rain comes down

Never get home if you don't strike out

I've loved you like you'll never know

Where do all those futures go?
