Minor A

You move slow like the shade

Like litter by the drain

But you cross my path quick

Like the shadow of a plane

In your eyes there is something

That flickers like a flame

Steady as she goes

This'll burn through my brain

I'm looking for a chance to speak

Wake up now and answer me

Sliding through an empty space

Looking back like a minor A

I watch you breathe slow

Through the crowd as it split

And I walk through the hall

Keeping time like a drip

We close every curtain

Give daylight the slip

Steady as she goes

With no sound from her lips

I'm looking for a chance to speak

Wake up now and answer me

Sliding through an empty space

Looking back like a minor A
