Time Before Mourning

[Verse 1] As I've stared at the forest so long It started to remind me of you In a lonely spot, I looked over the bluff I thought, "My God, how you would love this view" [Pre-Chorus] So I reach out when I miss you You say it's not enough And love, that's true, mmm [Chorus] A single cell collapsing Oh, hold my hand, you'll hold your scarf The right hand on your cigarette Isn't trust like an angel's touch? So sweet and loving Oh, babe, you're such a pretty one Fireworks above us It's the time before mourning The time before mourning The time beforе mourning The time beforе mourning [Verse 2] But you say, "Hang on, hang on" You're getting tired of it I know, I know it's just the mood of the weather Or something, something more And it's a brainstorm, brainstorm You're feeling foggy In the nighttime, I called I said, "Just love me some more" You said, "Just love me some more" [Chorus] A single cell collapsing Oh, hold my hand, dear, I'll hold your scarf Right hand on your cigarette Isn't trust like an angel's touch? So sweet and loving Oh, babe, you're such a pretty one Fireworks above us It's the time before mourning The time before mourning The time before mourning Time before mourning [Bridge] You told me once of this magnificent stained-glass window At the top of the stairs in your parents' old house The one from [?] times How the light would bend to the will of the glads Letting itself be altered and shaped Until it hit its original note, its god-given purpose There are still times that I think of you as that window and me as the light How taken was I with every word and action Moved, repurposed, shifted, us willingly in love That's all I think about now [Outro] Come close It's daybreak And I yearn for those golden waves
