Jonathan Coulton - Glasses Lyrics
Shed the days like skinPray for evenings inHold their hands in the street when you walk them off to schoolA box too full to shutCardboard paper cutBleeding edge of a picture of your parents when they were coolSo much to say, I forget to startThere goes a day, fading as it passesForget the grey, let it fall apartIt's okayI like you in glassesShovels in the sandA playdough wedding bandA drowning princess in a tangle of towels on the floorAn old familiar acheThe little pills we takeThe thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the doorSo much to say, I forget to startThere goes a day, fading as it passesForget the grey, let it fall apartIt's okayIt's on the boardSomeone's been double-bookingI've got timeHow is your next week looking?House shifts into placeA little breathing spaceThe radiators and the floorboards will argue while we sleepThere's water in the wallsThe stairs make waterfallsDown in the basement the soft sound of a river digging deepSo much to say, I forget to startThere goes a day, fading as it passesForget the grey, let it fall apartSo much to say, I forget to startThere goes a day, fading as it passesForget the grey, let it fall apartIt's okayI like you in glasses
