But Now You Know

Don't throw out your winter clothes

The way our glances froze it just might snow

Ten thousand days or more

Enough to cover or quench our hopes

And tandem bicycles in ten-inch icicles

And glacier footprints in a single row

Leaving little hope left that you

Won't fall for anywhere else than here

I know it seems like the better idea

When all our sentiments are seemingly few and far between

Pasadena river in the morning, you look all the best to me

Ten years on and counting you've got mad skills

And a weird ambiguity

So what do you know about air lithium batteries

Anodes and oxide to power our flashlights

When our sentiments are seemingly few and far between

Let's hold hands and go for a city

Let's hold hands and go for a citywide search for our loss

Let's hold hands and go for a city

Don't go chasing curtain calls

Settle for applause from heavy rain

Upon the bothered glass of bedroom windows as you drift away

Breathing uneasily, mumbling warily: Don't go

And I wake you up although I never tell you so

But now you know
