Saudade Lyrics

Blank books, no songs;

Baby, I've been doing this for too long.

Night falls and we go under,

I ain't getting any younger

So I closed the door I said 'Thank you for the ride'

And I know you can tell there's something else

Trying to force its way outside.

But I just dig my heels in hard against the slow flood of time

And I said 'Never you mind; some things are better kept aside.'



Cultivate a quiet rage;

Well I'm getting used to being avoided like the plague.

Just wanted you to know you're wrong,

That it was me and never you I'm running from.

So I closed the door I said 'Thank you for the ride'

And I know you can tell there's something else

Trying to force its way outside.

But I just dig my heels in hard against the slow flood of time

And I said 'Never you mind; some things are easier just to hide.'
