歌词
I wish you had been at your memorial
Seeing someone proposing on stage
I couldn't get through my song for you
When it came to saying your name
I can still see the room at the hospital
Pretty, painted tile
I can still see your skin turning purple
Milly of the Nile
♪
Can you hear me?
Did you mean it?
Did you plan it out?
Or was it an accident?
♪
Time, time up and down the blue screen
It's dawn and I'm insane
Love's just a word and not what the word means
But I'll say it just the same
Talking to an entity
Made of endless night
I dream in TV dialogue
A world of shadow and light
♪
I know it don't work that way
But maybe you'll come back some day
I know it don't work like that
But maybe you can take it back
♪
Now that there's no need to say a word
Can I still make amends?
But silence, the only kindness I heard
Forgiveness, the only revenge
Meeting all of the people
I've heard of from your past
Reading through all of your letters
Looking for your love
♪
You told me that love
Is when someone asks you
Please leave me alone
And you really do
You looked into my eyes
'Til I was your mother and son
I tried to look away
But saw you in everyone
I wish you had been at your memorial
Seeing someone proposing on stage
