Words and music by Roddy Frame

When day has lost its dark
When shadows cease to fall
I wish and wonder

You walk into the room
The air is turning blue
I'm turning to you
And all my time
Is open wide

Chorus:
And you, you say you'll do one thing
And then you do two things
Smile and the birds sing and everything
And you, you're painting the sky blue
Growing the grass green
Sending the sea crazy

You sway and my head swims
You swam onto my shore
Closed your fingers
Smiled and blew
And shone your heart
And my heart flew
And fell for eyes that shone
They close and I'm all gone
And you've left here

I'm burning blue
For someone who
Flew too near

Chorus

Closed your fingers
Smiled and blew
And shone your heart
And my heart flew
You say you'll do one thing
And then you do two things
Smile and the birds sing
It's crazy
