I'll Be Damned - Pianos Become The Teeth

Maybe, maybe you saw your mother, maybe she’s smiling

She hears your catching laughter, she’s missed your charm

We never made it to Cooperstown but I’ve still got that glove under my bed

Maybe I’ll see you

We could shoot the shit, finally have a beer, finally have a catch

But for now it’s catch my tears, it’s catch my breath

I can just hear you say

«Come on bud, get out of that funk, it’s time to move on.»

It’s funny how you still apply, you still know me

I try to take your tools and make something worthwhile, try to make you proud

I’ve learned nothing is promised anymore

But I’ll let you resonate

I’ll let you resonate

Maybe your Heaven is that Norman Rockwell scene

Where you and your friends are singing that Gordon Lightfoot song

«If you could only read my mind»

If you could only read my mind

Read my mind

Well that ending, it was just too hard to take

Is it better than Clapton?

Did you see your father’s eyes?

I know it’s wishful thinking hoping this won’t always kill me

But if you saw yours, then I’ll see mine

You finally stretched your feet and ghosted away from me

You had to leave

You had to fade away, you had to fade away, you had to fade away

You had to fade away, you had to leave

I’m pleading for one more time with what I know now

And I’m begging for the same flake to fall twice for the first time

I’m begging for what wasn’t said

That night the snow shaped the land and I walked home

I laughed the whole way cause I suppose if it hurts it’s worth it

But now that ghost is me
