Daphne Loves Derby - To Struggle with Light Colors lyrics

rate me

A violet night kept you alive

But you never had the will to stay here

I was possessed by your eyes

But you fell asleep most of the time

So I learned to speak myself

While you were in dreams somewhere else so.....

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

She always said I was too silent

And I never found the words to entertain her

Maybe I tried just too hard to always be clever

While she always starved for simple words to keep her safe

To keep her safe

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

Maybe maybe if I don't see you now

I'll keep myself shattered somehow

Oh in every way, every way somehow

A man who speaks with a silver tongue

Yes he whispered to me something sweet that swept me away

I sold your soul to a pack of wolves

For two pounds of pride and a lifetime supply of regrets

Regrets

A violet night kept you alive

But you never had the will to stay here

Maybe it's all for the best

So darling don't lose any sleep over me

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

Maybe maybe if I don't see you now

I'll keep myself shattered somehow

Oh in every way, every way somehow
