I'll Picture You

I really hoped for the double decker bus Though we never made it back to London anyway Maybe even better Mount Vesuvius Positioned into a permanent embrace I was wrong to think that as the red slowed I'd have your hand to hold, both our fingers growing cold But somehow when I focus on your face Dark fear's erased Whatever takes me to the next place is love I'm about to die, so I picture you About to die knowing our love is true Maybe if I love hard enough, I'll get to stay here by your side So I'll picture you when I die Can you sense it? Are my thoughts breaking through to your sleepy head Can you feel it? Is there anything we left unsaid? Looking down at the city lights below Time is slowing down, but only for me Nothing special about the concrete curve My vision blurred until your eyes are all I see I was wrong to think that as the red slowed I wouldn't do it all alone Feel a hum within my bones But somehow when I focus on your face I float in space Whoever takes me to the next place is love I'm about to die, so I picture you About to die knowing our love is true Maybe if I love hard enough, I'll get to stay here by your side So I'll picture you when I die
