Matthew Ryan – Time And Time Only
Your hair fell from you onto my forehead
And the light came through the shade and laid on the bed
My arms they wrestled your inventions
While my heart was still wrestling with my head
Yes my heart still wrestles with my head
Barefoot on the hardwood in the kitchen
Barefoot in the frontyard on the grass
The summer it is setting with its stitches
This love is stronger than any that has passed
But time and time only knows the answers
That time and time only can reveal
Yes time and time only knows the answers
That time and time only can steal
Yes time and time only can…steal
But I’m not so sure of anything anymore
No I’m not so sure of anything anymore
Then the wind surrounded me and I surrendered
It was beautiful, it was vile and I bent
But when all the new familiars they had vanished
It was only you and your skin that was left
Yeh only you and your skin was left
Now the days they are unwinding like an alarm clock
And the drift it is as steady as it is strong
And that’s me fumbling with the key to your padloc
And you knew it, ah, you knew it all along
Yeh I knew it, you knew it along
