The Too Long Song

from Reverb + Misery = by The Walker Project

/

lyrics

Atoning imagined sins
I walk these streets again
Filling hats with unspent change
Giving shelter from the rain

But you know this just won't do
The curse of kindness brings thoughts of you

So I pay out more, clutch this rain with claws
Carving Ave Marias' up and down these arms
That held you for a moment,
that held you for a moment too long

And now I'm waiting for that train
Damn freighter knows my pain
And it just won't come along
To take me where I belong

But you know it just won't do
It'll bring me back, but not to you

So I'll wait some more, weave this crown of thorns
Carving 'Ave Marias' up and down these arms
That held you for a moment
That held you for a moment
Too long
Too long
Too long

Too long
Since I've seen you
