lyrics

The small hours

If there’s time tonight I’d like to meet you
in the downtown after working late
I’d bring the latest broken things that I’ve been working on
to see if you could lend them grace

and I’d try not to count the days
the small hours dry like rain
as our short dreams crack and seem
to be the dust we’ve always been

If there’s time, you say you want to leave too
cut a path away and fear no change
but all the things we bought to build a place that we would love
are now just why we can’t escape

and I’d try not to count the days
the small hours dry like rain
the short dreams crack and seem
to be the dust we’ve always been

I’ll make the time tonight to see you
Fill in the moments that we traced
Laugh when the photograph’s the only step to lead you back
Walk with me all of the way

and try, to enjoy the days
the small hours dry like rain
that dries upon the seams
of the cracks in all our dreams
