MUSIC FOR SALE

[Verse 1]
Back on the rooftop
Old paint, warm stone
Neighbors draw curtains
I stay alone
Plane lines fading
into darker blue
Every white circle
I look for you

[Chorus]
So I’m watching the skies for passing halos
Little bright rings over cheap vinyl tiles
Every glow, every ghost on the ceiling
I’m hoping it’s you, just passing for a while
I’m watching the skies for passing halos
Eyes getting tired, still tracing every line
If one falls low enough to touch
I’ll say goodbye this time

[Verse 2]
Thermos by the railing
Coffee gone cold
Street dogs barking
Stories they told
Your sweater on my shoulders
Frayed at the seam
I talk to the vapor
You answer in steam

[Chorus]
I’m watching the skies for passing halos
Little bright rings over cheap vinyl tiles
Every glow, every ghost on the ceiling
I’m hoping it’s you, just passing for a while
I’m watching the skies for passing halos
Eyes getting tired, still tracing every line
If one falls low enough to touch
I’ll say goodbye this time

[Bridge]
Clouds drift, slow parade
Name them all like we did that day
If you’re up there, turn one gold
Let it break, let it break
Right over our old window
Right over my whole life

[Chorus]
Still watching the skies for passing halos
Mumbling your name to the satellite lights
Every flare, every flare that I follow
I’m begging it stays, just stay through the night
I’m watching the skies for passing halos
Till morning cuts through and closes my eyes
If one falls low enough to touch
I’ll let you go this time
