Hideaway

Speak only facts to me, I can take them now
Pull out the vaguery from my mouth
No more indulging in useless doubt
I’m only carving the good bits out

This was a summer of sifting through
But I’m the best of me when I’m with you
What were the songs we sang out of tune
Like shadows dancing around the room

Strung up our moments one to the next
Hung them like prayer bells around my neck
And I’ll ring them out on nights like this
I’m overcome by restlessness

When the weather clears I’ll show my face again
Maybe I won’t be so afraid of my own skin
But till then, I’ve gotta hide away in the foothills
Don’t try to find me, don’t try to find me
Don’t try to find me, don’t try to find me
Don’t try to find me, don’t try to find me

This was a summer of sifting through
But I’m the best of me when I’m with you
String up our moments one to the next
Ring them prayer bells around our necks
