lyrics

Oh it happened so fast
A finger dropped onto a map
Oh it happened so fast
The single drop that filled the bath

Oh I'd give it back
Year after year all the choices we had
I'd give it back
The sense that since hasn't come back

White light that ties me to you
Across this body and the continents too
I shouldn't have tried to imagine you
While I still feel you, while I still feel you

Do you remember
The way my thighs trembled
The way I wouldn't look away
The way I held your gaze
The way I asked you to stay

Do you remember
The way my mouth tasted
The way I held your face
Oh all I have since bitten
All I have since seen

I would give it all back
If to forgive meant to forget that
I would give it all back
If to forgive meant to forget that

But for the first time in my life
I can see the sky
I lay in my bed at night
And let the moon beat down on me
I let the moon beat down on me

And I would give it all back
If to forgive meant to forget that
I would give it all back
If to forgive meant to forget that

But for the first time in my life
I can see the sky
I lay in my bed at night
And let the moon beat down on me
I let the moon beat down on me
