Any Kind of Bridge

Any kind of bridge would be useless now

The only distance is one we allow

We both love our own languages best

I'm caught up in sounds, and you in pictures I guess

And now you've outgrown the child in me

And weren't you the one who set her free

Late to bed and early to rise

I'm getting stars under my eyes

Shades of violet I've never seen

Rest of the world, palest green

And now you've outgrown the child in me

And weren't you the one who set her free

I feel as tall as the trees tonight

And I'm feeling dangerously light

I could float away upon a sigh

Sail down slowly against the sky

But now you've outgrown the child in me

And weren't you the one who set her free

Any kind of bridge would be useless now

The only distance is one we allow

We both love our own languages best

I'm caught up in sounds, and you in pictures I guess

And now you've outgrown the child in me

And weren't you the one who set her free
