Lyrics VHS - Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness

VHS

It’s the sound the night makes when you can’t fall asleep
It’s the things that you see in your mind before dreaming
The streets and the alleys where you played as a kid
It’s the days you didn’t listen
A film with frames missing
VHS videotape repeating
Repeating
Capsized
Coming up for air in your green eyes
In between the dream and the moonlight
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
Truth hides
Underneath the water where the time slides
I don’t need to dream
The past is history
Future’s a mystery
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
It’s the days like a razor that you learn to forgive
It’s the nights with no danger when you finally believe that
Where you came from doesn’t have to be where you live
It was harder before
You taught me to ignore
That VHS videotape repeating
Capsized
Coming up for air in your green eyes
In between the dream and the moonlight
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
Truth hides
Underneath the water where the time slides
I don’t need to dream
The past is history
Future’s a mystery
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
Keep me in the bright now
With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory
With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory
Capsized
Coming up for air in your green eyes
In between the dream and the moonlight
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
Truth hides
Underneath the water where the time slides
I don’t need to dream
The past is history
Future’s a mystery
You’re the one to keep
Keep me in the bright now
(With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory)
Keep me in the bright now
(With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory)
Keep me in the bright now
(With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory)
(With you I don’t have to be
Living in a memory)
