I heard
That you′re moving away
Fumbled in my pockets for a final wordI tell you, don't be late
Smile when you tell me you wont
Shuffle your feet and you don′t
Want to read between the air of silence
Then the rain begins
I don't want to love you
I want to learn you
But I'd love to know you well
So long
To your family home
I wonder if you′ll ever get that feeling back?
Your family home
Covered my eyes with your hands
Walked me through all of your plans
I told you I could see it all, but all I saw was you
Through the space in your fingers
I don′t want to love you
I want to learn you
But I'd love to know you well
You say
All the people you know
All are slowly dying from a silent cause
Their quiet desperation
I walk you home in the rain
Pass by the yellow line train
Thought that I was different when you looked at me
But this quiet desperation is killing me too
Is killing me too
And I don′t want to love you
I want to learn you
But I'd love to know you well
