Ankle

I’m hanging on to your ankle in my sleep
Don’t you leave now, it’s too early for the speech
“If I go, don’t you know, it’s not forever?”
“Yes I know, if you leave, it’s not forever”

I’m not turning the other way
The sun in my eye makes me feel alright
I’m not turning the other way
I’m not done looking at you

You throw your heart out on the street
Wondering why it hasn’t been remotely squeezed
There’s a yellow place for our tired minds
Now it’s 6am, we haven’t gone to bed
We’re busy breathing in and out

Yeah you’re a contradiction
You’re an accident hoping to happen
Here’s hoping you happen to me

I’m not turning the other way
The sun in my eye makes me feel alright
I’m not turning the other way
I’m not done looking at you
