Threadbare

from APRIL by The Scatter

/

lyrics

Suitcase of dreams
The tank full of hope
Unending streets
But no footsteps to follow

I climb in a tree
as I watch the heavens pass
My heart is threadbare
Like the sweater on my back

With city lights behind
The darkness unrestrained
They number in the billions
But You know them all by name

empty backseat
Sun and wind on my face
I see an unfamiliar friend
On the side of the highway

He looks in his drink
As he pauses to think
About the time that he spent
As quickly as it went

So I paint him a picture
Of things I’ve never seen
hope is like believing
that there’s water in the sea
oh there’s water in the sea

Still haven’t looked for
What I’ve already found
So I head out again
Into the open road

I can never sing the same song
The same way twice
Cos’ everyday’s been different
Since you’ve given me this life

Let the cold of the winter
The heat of the summer
The passion of the Lover
Find me again and again
