Postcard |
You sent a pretty postcard |
From a far and lonely sea |
A dancer and a mandolin |
They looked like you and me |
I’ve been awake for hours and hours |
I should be fast asleep |
I lost the place and out it fell |
Your postcard from the beach |
Sometimes when I’m talking to myself |
I’ll swear it’s all a dream |
November babies and northern winds |
The scars you said I’d keep |
But if you’d never come here |
You’d never have had to leave |
And all the bones upon the beach |
They all sung out to me |
Grab it into your hands |
Don’t let go and grab it |
But look the way it curls |
Out of your fingers |
I used to wish I was the cigarette |
Inside your mouth |
You’d roll me up and breathe me in |
But then you’d blow me out |
And I would float and curl my way |
A vapour trail the end of me |
All that’s left a place that’s kept |
Your postcard from the sea |
