The Sky Is A Glove

[Verse 1]
Envelopes keeps dropping through the letterbox inside my head
I watch them hit the doormat, then explode into the room
I recognise the writing, and I know that when I open them
Your words will change the rhythm of this perfect afternoon

[Chorus]
I'm floating by, wearing the sky like a glove

[Verse 2]
I look out from my window ledge, across the fields below me
To a cottage in a garden, on a headland by the sea
Your letter holds a photograph, the facеs seem familiar
But the names are half forgottеn like a stain that never cleans

[Chorus]
I’m floating by, wearing the sky like a glove

[Pre-Chorus]
There's nothing quite as certain as a letter from reality
Neglect your obligations and they'll throw away the key
I’ve struggled in the curtains on the threshold of insanity
You say I'm just a dreamer, but that's all that you can see

[Chorus]
I'm floating by, wearing the sky like a glove

[Pre-Chorus]
There's nothing quite as certain as a letter from reality
Neglect your obligations and they'll throw away the key
I'm cutting off the hand of fate to stop him interfering
With another dose of problems and an answer I don't need

[Chorus]
I’m floating by, wearing the sky like a glove
The sky is a glove
