letra de loyalty - the weather station

Loading...

well you called me – telephone ringing in the night
and you asked me if i was alright –
like an afterthought, an oversight
and i stood, so surprised
trying to hold on to my pride
so close, i could hear your low sigh
i said i was fine. you said you were fine

there’s a loneliness – i don’t lose sight of it
like a high distant satellite
one side in shadow, one in light
but i didn’t mind to be alone that night, in a city

i’d never seen – all these skyscr-pers pooling on a prairie
built high and tall, as though they all compete
just to reach the darkness up above
that once here had been

somewhere – if there’s a beauty you had seen in me
that i wanted somehow to believe – drift of sentiment and memory
that i couldn’t have, i could not keep
no, it never did belong to me; it was only ever another thing i would carry
still it held me, loyalty, to a feeling, to some glimpse
of a love that was only ever a kind of distance
that we could not cross. “gather no moss.”
