Hanging on for someone is quite addictive | |
When you gaze from high-rise windows | |
At the lights beyond the ring road and the social club | |
One girl's perfection is another's expectation | |
And the pureness of a moment always overstays its welcome | |
If I linger too long | |
I'm romantic by design | |
I see joy within the syntax of a shop sign | |
Or a bus stop conversation in a west country town | |
I feel overwhelmed sometimes by all the rational types | |
Who just dismiss coincidence and instinct and perception | |
As a trick of the mind | |
It's always fleeting, like snapshots or flashbacks and | |
Unwritten endings and the promises wrapped up inside | |
And I'm all potential, and potential is the spark behind my eyes | |
Behind my eyes | |
I'm forensic by design | |
I'm the sort who sees a magic trick | |
Then kills himself to find out how it's done | |
And then I'm always let down | |
I'm all details and facts | |
How can I sleep when there's comparisons and speculation, | |
Talking heads, deliberations haunting me | |
Fleeting moments are insomnia for the curious and | |
Untied endings are the curse of inquisitive minds | |
And so what's potential, | |
When potential might be all you ever know? | |
I don't know | |
Oh the summer, it drags its heels | |
And then for every fleeting moment | |
There's a fortnight left to wonder if it happened at all… |
Hanging on for someone is quite addictive | |
