Song language: English
The Movement of a Hand |
| You follow the footsteps |
| Echoes leading down a hall to a room |
| There is music playing |
| Tiny bells with moving parts |
| Here the shadows make things ugly |
| An effect quite undesirable |
| The bold and yellow daylight |
| Grows like ivy across the wall |
| And it bounces off of the painted porcelain |
| Tiny dancing doll |
| Her body spins, as she pirouettes again |
| The world suddenly seems small |
| On an off white, subtle morning |
| You stretch your legs in the front seat |
| And the road has made a vacuum |
| Where our voices used to be |
| And you lay your head onto my shoulder |
| Pour like water over me |
| So if I just exist for the next |
| Ten minutes of this drive that would be fine |
| And all these trees that line this curb |
| Would be rejoicing and alive |
| Soon all the joy that pours from everything |
| Makes fountains of your eyes |
| Because you finally understand |
| The movement of a hand waving good-bye |
