Ellis Paul - Changing Your Name текст песни

I judged the distance

To where you ran your hand through your hair

You were startled for an instant , you said,

"take me home," and I paid the fare.

And you laughed the laugh of the innocent

As the cab cut a path in the street

As the world swept by with its violence

I thought of the shelter wed find in the sheets

In the sheets

Chorus

I never asked you for nothing like changing your name

I believed we had something here, but nothing ever came

Were you thrown by the language, by words that we said

When I told you I loved you

Did it get in the way? get in the way?

You lit a candle,

Then you poured me a glass of port wine

I pulled the oven handle,

The air felt warm, the scent felt kind

And your kiss could heal like medicine

There aint nothing that it cant overcome

But I could not lean on this evidence,

For fear youd take the cure and run.

You would run...

Chorus

Cause love wont stop to

Think about the consequences

Turns a fool to stumbling

Over peoples fences.

And the moon cut a frown over windy town

But you smiled as you pulled down the shade

And we turned a corner onto holy ground

And got lost in the love we made, that we made...

Chorus

Get in the way...
