[Verse 1]
Early morning shades of grey
A beautiful overtone
But you're wasting the moment on your telephone, yeah
Hardly talking, it's such a shame
There used to be laughter here
Now we choke on the quiet
[Pre-Chorus]
Only I don't think that you want that
I don't think that you need that
I won't tell you off
I'm your friend, I hope that you're mine too
I don't know what you're feeling
All of my thoughts are repeating
If you could let me in
I don't wanna pry but I'm fighting
(I know you're tired, I see it in your face)
[Chorus]
Impatiently
I'm crying out for answers but you run from me
Emotionally
Tears have more to say than any words we speak
I'm covered in night sweat
Glow from the cigarettes
Eyes on the TV screen
Trying not to answer me
So I'm calling your name
If you believe that we can change
Why wait until the sun comes out?
[Verse 2]
Early morning changing shapes
A picturesque shadow dance
Plays on the covers with your sleeping hands, yeah
Cards and omens, ace of spades
Another day passing by
We could just let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Only I don't think that you want that
I don't think that you need that
I won't tell you off
I'm your friend, I hope that you're mine too
I don't know what you're feeling
All of my thoughts are repeating
If you could let me in
I don't wanna pry but I'm fighting
(I know you're tired, I see it in your face)
[Chorus]
Impatiently
I'm crying out for answers but you run from me
Emotionally
Tears have more to say than any words we speak
I'm covered in night sweat
Glow from the cigarettes
Eyes on the TV screen
Trying not to answer me
So I'm calling your name
If you believe that we can change
Why wait until the sun comes out?
[Break]
It's hard to make decisions so we don't
Running around in circles and we know where circles go
I only wanna make you try, make you try
[Chorus]
Impatiently
I'm crying out for answers but you run from me
Emotionally
Tears have more to say than any words we speak
I'm covered in night sweat
Glow from the cigarettes
Eyes on the TV screen
Trying not to answer me
So I'm calling your name
If you believe that we can change
Why wait until the sun comes out?
