Songtext von Ordinary Things

Talking you are with me Talking ordinary things Are lifted up when I'm with you Days and nights through my mind Seems like every word I find Is picking me up when I'm with you An old bedroom painted blue Two framed photos on a wire Rain that splashes on a stone Half window, half a view, Your half answer when I call As near to heaven as I've known This is the hour we're watching Another minute passing A string of evenings every window is open wide. Just like an ocean across my back Just like an ocean down my neck How would I spend my time with anybody else? A stranger's dress orange-checked, A purple shine in a pigeon's neck A green-skinned lemon in a tree A rattling train on its rails Tobacco underneath your nails An afternoon watching the sea. This is the hour we're watching Another minute passing A string of mornings every front door is open wide. Just like an ocean across my back Just like an ocean down my neck How would I spend my time with anybody else?
