The Tipping Point
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.
You know that I can’t love you more
You know that I can’t love you more
Silver tongue, they’ll soon be gone
When the sunlight hits the room
Lay down with them if you want
Watch their breath and feel the cold
Raise you hand, bite you tongue
Conversation is over and done
Will you let them out?
Will you let them in?
Will you ever know when it’s the tipping point, the tipping point?
So who’s that ghost knocking at my door?
You know that I can’t love you more
What’s that shape climbing over my wall?
You know that I can’t love you more
You know that I can’t love you more
Winter done, they’ll soon be gone
From this unforgiving place
To that vague and distant void
Where the sunlight splits the eye
Life is cruel, life is tough
Life is crazy, then it all turns to dust
Will you let them out?
Will you let them in?
Will you ever know when it’s the tipping point, the tipping point, the tipping point, the tipping point, the tipping point?
So who’s that ghost knocking at my door?
You know that I can’t love you more
What’s that shape climbing over my wall?
You know that I can’t love you more
So who’s that ghost knocking at my door?
You know that I can’t love you more
What’s that shape climbing over my wall?
You know that I can’t love you more
Love you more, love you more, love you more
