Delicate Days

Always falling apart
Never close to being state of the art
While we spend much of our time
On what's yours and what's mine but
Who's to know?
Oh, some day we'll go driving in the dark
In your cherry interior car
And we'll stop just to hear the sound
Of an old and tired town
I could cry now

Is this what you really wanted?
A reasonable call to make
I was somewhere in between it
Never in the air you breathe

Is this what you really wanted? Oh
Dying in the currency
It's a life that you were needing
To lay awake and look through me
To look through me

Born in the delicate days
Shop around with the greens and the greys
You and I could crawl inside
Leave when the weather's right and walk along
I was only ever ready to go
When you asked if I had reason to know
If it's a long way down from here
Best to disappear and move along now

Is this what you really wanted?
A reasonable call to make
I was somewhere in between it
Never in the air you breathe

Twenty-two
Did or do
Forget you
Split in two
Cut right through
You're just a landslide starting to move

Is this what you really wanted? Oh
The reasonable call to make
I was somewhere in between it
Never in the air you breathe
Never in the air you breathe
