lyrics

Harbinger

I spent weeks making a list of things to show you. Places, buildings, memories. We didn’t look at it once. It seemed so useless, once we were in the same place, latching to one another like koala bears. Sometimes, the memories you have aren’t as important as the ones you are creating, and the people you are creating them with. In this very room, or in a distant lake house we keep joking about – but always meaning it. I’m sure you can already picture the ornaments on the windowsill.

In every wish, every notion,
every bold belief
There’s dreams in all these gutters
In all these streets

I want to know where the clocks
send the wasted time
Everyone has a vision
And I found mine

It’s been a week now since you left. And I still try to pretend. Your towel’s still in the bathroom, your toothbrush near the sink. I still keep a second duvet in my bed, so when I wake up at night, I can pretend you just went to the kitchen real quick.

In every wish, every notion,
every bold belief
There’s dreams in all these gutters
In all these streets

I want to know where the clocks
send the wasted time
Everyone has a vision
And I found mine

In every doubt, every fraud,
every disbelief
There’s dreams in all these gutters
In all these streets

I want to know where the poets
find all their rhymes
Everyone has delusions
And these are mine

We wait our turn, we live sweet dreams
We cook our meals, we change our sheets
We wander through our minds
And search for all the wasted time

One day we’ll break the distance
One day we’ll make it through
Everywhere I’ll go, you’ll be there with me
Everywhere I go, I summon you

In every gutter, every street, every memory
On every rooftop, every square, every ocean beach
In every home, every lighthouse, every ship at sea
They will know our names, they will know our names
