How We Know
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 spoon water like love and I will take it
if you can take it
this is how we know
this is how we go
this is how we know
I don't know what to say
when you're so far from me I can barely make you
I count two two three
breathe two three
you spoon water like love and I will take it
if you can take it
you spin circle in verse and I will take it
if you can take it
this is howe we go
soft and slowly, don't you know me
know I count two, I count for you
given the thought I would have you again
I count two two three, breathe two three
you walk alone, you talk in code
it's a light I can't decipher
but eyes shut is somehow enough
under trick lighting
under trick eyelids
given the thought I would have you again
I count two two three
breathe two three
you spoon water like love and I will take it
if you can take it
this is how we know
this is how we go
this is how we know
