Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My god, I thought, my god, what a sunset
Blood red floods the Atlantic
With a wine in my hand
Laid back in the grass of some stranger's field
While shearwaters reeled overhead
[Verse 2]
Thinking I should get all this dying off my mind
I should really know better than to read the headlines
Does it matter if I see? No really
Why can't I just cover my eyes?
[Verse 3]
In the half light, soft wind on my skin
Pink clouds massing on the cliffs
Thinking "how can I touch this?"
How can I touch this softest
Petal, softest stem, softest leaf, bending, green, in my palm?
[Verse 4]
Thinking I should get all this dying off of my mind
I should really know better than to read the headlines
Does it matter if I see? No really
Why can't I just cover my eyes?
Why can't I just cover my eyes?
