postcard lullabies - circlejourney lyrics

[intro]
(it is too late to say i knew)
(i would regret not coming through)
(wasted chances, traded glances)
(threatening to mean something half*true)

[verse]
it was the best of my life, the worst of my nevers
was a fool, wasn’t i, to want her for forever?
should’ve known when she said her future wasn’t me
no, it was my ship to wreck
have i become a regret, do i still haunt her fears?
can’t help thinking we had two very different years
and that day glowered grey, although the sky was clear
even now, i play it back

[chorus]
the way she said, “i’m out of love with you”
four months later, she was seeing someone new
my soul still living on that golden seaside
walking in the sunlight
i turn to keep her smile in my view
my heart forgot she said, “i’m out of love with you”
four months later, she had faded out of view
yet despite myself, i still recall the shape of her room
and the way she’d tell me, “i love you”
[bridge]
the wind unfolds on shores and shoals
and foam on sails of salt and whales
the vaulting sky as pale, as dry as heaven above
the sandy skies and dragonflies
and blazing eyes in paradise
a thousand postcard lullabies
to a place that doesn’t exist anymore
(i know)
she’s a dream from my past (the wind unfolds on shores)
i’d be lying if i said (and shoals, and foam)
that i want to return (on sails of salt)
to any part of that (and whales, the)
but if memories are graves then (vaulting sky, as pale)
i’m dying in my bed (as dry as)
there are nights i lie with the dead (heaven above)
(i know)
and i know (the sandy skies)
we’re no longer the people we were then (and dragonflies, and)
i have fallen in love again and again (blazing eyes in paradise, i’ll write)
but i’m learning the heart takes a while (you postcard lullabies)
to forget the one it thought it had forever (my love)

[chorus]
she said, “i’m out of love with you”
four months later, she was seeing someone new
my soul still living on that golden seaside
walking in the sunlight
i turn to keep her smile in my view
my heart forgot she said, “i’m out of love with you”
four months later, she had faded out of view
still, i keep a picture*perfect memory of her room
and the way she’d tell me, “i love you”
