Quarters In A Pocket

Like the setting sun

And more than anyone

You look warmer when you're sinking down

Find your favourite tree

And come sit next to me

I've a sheet that's softer than the ground

This time spent with you

Feels like charcoal sketches for a painting

That you won't let me see

But I've come to find

That comfort comes like quarters in a pocket

I thought were lost to me

All your favourite clothes

And all the pain we know

Came from those you favour for a time

Take it off your chest

And throw your loneliness

In a surly river, cold and wild

This time spent with you

Feels like charcoal sketches for a painting

That you won't let me see

But I've come to find

That comfort comes like quarters in a pocket

I thought were lost to me

Lie about your sign

And hang your worry line

On a missing poster for a dog

Find a promise ring

And blind affinity

For a match the gypsy said was wrong

This time spent with you

Feels like charcoal sketches for a painting

That you won't let me see

But I've come to find

That comfort comes like quarters in a pocket
