Sufjan Stevens - Futile Devices lyrics

rate me

it's been a long long time since i memorized your face

it's been four hours now since i wandered through your place

and when i sleep on your couch i feel very safe

and when you bring the blankets i cover up my face

i do

love you

i do

love you

and when you play guitar i listen to the strings plus

the metal vibrates underneath your fingers

and when you crochet i feel mesmerized and proud

and don't say 'i love you' without saying it out loud

it's hard, so i won't say it at all

and i won't stay very long

but you are the life i needed all along

i think of you as my brother although that sounds dumb

and words are futile devices
