lyrics

Don’t say that on the morning we met
That I was indifferent
Because I made a point to be nearer your umbrella
Yes, the sound the rain made affected me, honestly
And when the mist drifts over the lake
It mixes in time with my every breath
I know it’s not your cigarettes
Because you asked me for matches
And I shook my head
While turning the page I was skimming, honestly

One-hundred and seven words went by
Before you let out a sigh
Joining the mist – the only friend that I’d made
But it was just eleven
And I don’t count the rain, honestly
I think that this act made us familiar
Is that why you gazed over?

I hear you’re still searching
For a boy bestowing matches
But even if I had carried them
In the rain they’d be useless
But I suppose you knew that, honestly
