The Jacket

Album: The Wilds Durasi: 3:57
[00:03.22]She wore a black jacket and the winter sun beat down
[00:08.43]Or I guess it was early Spring and we were in a park in Chinatown
[00:16.28]If I were jacket
[00:19.03]Her chest and limbs all rapped around
[00:23.30]I would soak up all that light into my lining
[00:31.62]I leaned in to feel the warmth pouring off her skin
[00:36.93]Yes i tried to breathe her essence like it was precious oxygen
[00:44.58]And she took off her jacket the second we walked in
[00:51.87]And I soaked up all the light from the fluorescence
[00:59.65]What was I supposed to say to her?
[01:06.09]In the grocery aisle in the air conditioning
[01:11.73]What was I supposed to say to her?
[01:17.37]I was coming up empty
[01:20.66]Coming up
[01:23.25]I was on my phone for half an hour and bleached in the white light glare
[01:29.83]Sittin' at the sports bar 'cause the game is playing there
[01:36.95]And the hometown team was down by 10
[01:40.04]But I really didn't care
[01:44.30]I just soaked up all the light from the flat screen
[01:52.86]Oh where can my little darling be?
[01:58.07]Most of the money i ever spent, I spent it in her company
[02:05.31]Now I'm lookin' for some earnestness and my mind won't let me be
[02:12.78]Until I soak up all that light into my lining
[02:20.95]What was I supposed to say to her?
[02:27.01]In the grocery aisle in the air conditioning
[02:32.73]What was I supposed to say to her?
[02:38.61]I was coming up empty
[02:41.57]Coming up
[02:45.69]All day I did not know if we'd break up or I'd propose
[02:50.89]We walked out into the April glow
[02:57.19]Come to me now oh muse tell me something I can't confuse
[03:02.82]Sing me something I'll never lose in knowing
[03:08.83]What was I supposed to say to her?
[03:15.08]In the grocery aisle in the air conditioning
[03:20.65]What was I supposed to say to her?
[03:26.54]I was coming up empty
[03:30.40]What was I supposed to say to her?
[03:36.19]In the grocery aisle in the air conditioning
[03:41.72]What was I supposed to say to her?
[03:47.38]I was coming up empty
[03:50.85]Coming up
[03:53.12]🎵
