Wandering lonely through the snow streets of New York |
| [00:54.76] |
I stumbled on a thrift store that sold postcards by the yard |
| [01:05.15] |
I bought a mile and shipped them home so I could read |
| [01:12.24] |
Ten thousand ten-word tragedies, |
| [01:16.72] |
the lives these strangers lead |
| [01:21.26] |
To remind myself the things I need |
| [01:26.38] |
I once wrote you love songs |
| [01:30.83] |
You never fell in love |
| [01:35.37] |
We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves |
| [01:47.34] |
You left me feeling like |
| [01:51.83] |
we'd never really been in love |
| [01:55.21] |
Huddled homebound in my place in Holloway |
| [02:02.39] |
I wondered if you even heard those songs I used to play |
| [02:12.91] |
I wrote them as a gift for you and in return |
| [02:20.29] |
You gave a pair of hand-knit mittens to keep my fingers warm |
| [02:29.43] |
So I could play more ignored love songs |
| [02:34.39] |
I once wrote you love songs |
| [02:38.94] |
You never fell in love |
| [02:43.08] |
We used to fit like mittens, |
| [02:46.67] |
but never like gloves |
| [02:52.63] |
I once wrote you postcards |
| [02:56.79] |
But you never wrote back |
| [03:04.08] |
You promised me you would and I'm still waiting for that |
| [03:12.98] |
You left me feeling like we'd never really been in love |
| [03:21.78] |
Don't want to fit like mittens |
| [03:26.47] |
I want to fit like gloves |
| [03:35.45] |
I want to fit like gloves |
| [03:39.79] |
I want to fit like gloves |
| [03:45.94] |
I once wrote you love songs |
| [03:50.09] |
You never fell in love |
| [03:54.63] |
We used to fit like mittens, |
| [03:57.87] |
but never like gloves |
| [04:00.21] |
But never like gloves |
