lyrics

The sunset is sinking
Down into the patio wall
And you gently mocking say
“Hey are you listening at all?”
“Oh sorry I’m just drifting
In space you know how I can be.”
“Well Major Tom I’d just
Love if you’d listen to me”

And your face in that moment
Brings up what’s still left of a dream
It’s one I keep having
But can’t understand what it means
Oh a woman with your hair
And your face leads me by the hand
Up stairs to a room where
The floors are all covered in sand

Oh and she turns around
And smiles at me
Oh and she disappears
In the midsummer heat

You see me drifting
And get mock indignant again
“Did you come here to mope or
Did you come here to talk to your friend?”
“Oh sorry I’m just tired
Is all, you know how that can be”
“Well I should be going
Take care and please get some sleep”

Oh and you turn around
And smile at me
Oh and you disappear
In the midsummer heat
