Lyrics Postcards From Downtown - My Brightest Diamond

Postcards From Downtown

I lost all my faith in love
On those stairs that November
I know it meant a lot at the time
Now I can barely remember
It’s been a long time
It’s been a long time
You said I’ve been alone so long
I’ve got big theories of lonely
And that I drag them all over town
Just to look occupied
But I’m learning something
I’m doing time
Red light
Green light
One, two, three
Have you come to conquer me
It’s been a
A long time
It’s been a
A long time
Yeah, I know how to take in all kinds of heartless offers
Yeah, I’ve learned how to hand back a few
Still I’m as close to love as to walking on water
So what can I do with you
What will I do
With you
I’m going out now I’ll
Send you some postcards from downtown
Show you all the apartments
Where I got my degrees
Where I’d fall like small dreams
Where I’d fade like bright leaves
Red light
Green light
One, two, three
Have you come to conquer me
It’s been a
A long time
It’s been a
A long time
