Someone Great

I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new, I couldn't start it Too late for beginnings The little things that made me nervous Are gone in a moment I miss the way we used to argue Locked in your basement I wake up and the phone is ringing Surprised as it's early And that should be a perfect warning That something's a problem To tell the truth, I saw it coming The way you were breathing But nothing can prepare you for it The voice on the other end The worst is all the lovely weather I'm stunned, it's not raining The coffee isn't even bitter Because, what's the difference? There's all the work that needs to be done It's late for revision There's all the time and all the planning And songs to be finished And it keeps coming and it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'til the day it stops And it keeps coming and it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'til the day it stops And it keeps coming and it keeps coming And it keeps coming and it keeps coming And it keeps coming and it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'til the day it stops I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new, I couldn't start it Too late for beginnings You're smaller than my wife imagined Surprised you were human There shouldn't be this radio silence But what are the options? When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone We're safe for the moment Saved for the moment
