lyrics

FOREVER AND A DAY

There’s a voice in this room. I hear it when I’m not listening. Oh.
It’s in the pipes of the shower. It’s in the dust on the blinds.
I don’t believe it’s the wind outside. It’s not this old house settling. Oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Uh huh. Oh, oh, oh oh.

I know you were here before me, but something happened
and now your spirit touches me.

Goodnight.
A kiss goodnight.
A kiss goodnight
Forever and a day.

And I don’t know my real life. With my face and collar gone red.
For the first time I feel alive, wearing lipstick from the dead.

The sound is very dim. Just whispers up through the walls. Oh.
She burns into my soul. Her eyes have died a thousand times.
As she waits in the crawlspace for someone never to return. Oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Uh huh. Oh, oh, oh oh.

I know you were here before me,
but something happened and now your spirit touches me.

Goodnight.
A kiss goodnight.
A kiss goodnight
Forever and a day.
Oooohhhh...
