lyrics

A smoke on the curb.
But I don't smoke.
Around the turn, your autumn coat.
This wasn't how I hoped to see you again.

You cross the street.
Some scattered leaves.
I'm hiding things,
some shaky limbs.

My skin is hills
but my eyes are still.

I would have called you anyway.
I swear it was in my plan.
But this, this takes care of that.
A straight line on a map.

So I'll go ahead and say
the door's unlocked
but I'm not
being forward.
Just letting you know.

'Cause I want you to know.
