linger - te/mo lyrics
[verse 1]
she winked at me across the hall
said “get you a girl who does it all”
she beckoned me into the room
to pat my cheek with a wooden spoon
i left her place, called tim in tears
“the girl who does it all’s right here
but it’s all new and i don’t know
but she’s a dream, so i might be in trouble
in trouble”
[chorus]
sunlight, incense, passenger princess
a salted*caramel something
she came, i saw, she smiles, i fall
and part of me’s still tumbling
rabbits all the way down
to the wonderland of how her hands
have rings on every finger
that summer was our last one, and yet
still she lingers
[verse 2]
the sturgeon moon, that parking lot
her new york plans, my tightrope walk
i should’ve told her then and there
but she was sure and i was scared
we laughed about some sorry fool
“he thinks he has a chance with you?”
but underneath my bravado
i felt his pain
oh, god, i’m in trouble
’cause you’re trouble
this fool’s in trouble
we’re in trouble
[chorus]
sunlight, incense, passenger princess
that held hair braiding something
polaroids, her wall
when she said “smile” i heard “fall”
and part of me’s still tumbling
rabbits all the way down
to the wonderland of how her hands
would trace hearts on my fingers
that summer was our last one, and yet
still she lingers
[bridge]
she’d fix the collar of my suit
poke the heart on my sleeve
and somehow it only felt wrong
when she wasn’t looking at me
one night, her rings against my pulse
i held her stare too long
and then
she kissed me and that must be
what they call divinity
no wonder pharisees all fear it now
[chorus]
sunlight, incense, passenger princess
have one thought when she’s touching me
the god and girl both start with g
that kiss, my awe
she smiles, i fall
and maybe all religion is just magic, we’ve explained
so make it, make sense
passenger princess
i know i dropped the ball with you
but you could have said you loved me too
i came, you saw, you left before you could fall
but i think we’re still tumbling
rabbits all the way down
to that wonderland
the way your hands
have me wrapped around your fingers
that summer was our last one, and yet
still you linger
