There From Here - Phosphorescent

I was still awake at dawn

When a little spotted fawn

(A little cloud of steam in the morning mist)

Came across the lawn

And I’d been late and long

And I had waited all night long for this

If you’d have seen me last year I’d have said

«I can’t even see you there from here»

So Rumi said it best —

It’s best to let it rest

Do it like them Romans do, I guess

Try and keep em fed

Try and keep your head

Try and keep your robes above that mess

If you’d have seen me last year I’d have said

«I can’t even see you there from here»

She made a sound like fire

Through telephonic wires

And I had waited all night long for this

Was humming soft and low

Was come to let me know

That I had waited all my life on this

If you’d have seen me last year I’d have said

«I can’t even see you there from here»

If you’d have seen me last year I’d have said

«I can’t even see you there from here»

If you’d have seen me last year honey

«I can’t even see you there from here»

If you’d have found me last year honey

«I can’t even see you there from here»

If you’d have told me Nashville I’d have said

«I can’t even see you there from here»
