So Alive - The Answering Machine
I caught you eyes at the masquerade
And we joked about your dress
And how it shaved your age
And I recall'I've never loved you more
You pretended you were younger than me
As you packed the souvenirs and your magazine
That we read louddled on the corner of your street
In the summer of 2009
We felt so alive
We felt so alive
We felt so alive
Your phrasebook at the seaside
We're muted on a fairground ride
Our words washed up with the tide
A wave of syllable
From grey winds to the blue skies
On the darkside (we're so alive )
The lifeboats and the warships
Hide in your eye (we're so alive)
We 're so alive
Bodies sink on the morning train
As the skyline launcher over in the pouring rain
And I recall'I've never missed you more
Raced my finger on the guide book page
I joke about hinting how it shave its age
A swedish airport took you in but didn't let you go
On central European time
We felt so alive
We felt so alive
We felt so alive
Your phrasebook at the graveside
We're muted on a father's life
Our words washed up by the tide
A wave of syllable
From grey winds to the blue skies
On the darkside (we're so alive )
The lifeboats and the warships
Hide in your eye (we're so alive)
