Threadbare

You’re not like everybody
I can tell you anything I want
I’ve been watching your chest as it rises and falls
I can see your breath but I’m not cold at all
I’m waiting for you to say something while we’re alone here
Something I want you to whisper in my ear
Waiting for you 'cause when you are old, keep me close dear
I know that you’ll never let me disappear
But I’m a little bit threadbare
The light is fading
There’s a halo around you
Anticipating like an orchestra
That’s starting to tune
I’m waiting for you to say something while we’re alone here
Something I want you to whisper in my ear
Waiting for you 'cause when you are old, keep me close dear
I know that you’ll never let me disappear
But I’m a little bit threadbare
I still believe we had it half-right
We could be happy here in the half-light
I still believe we had it half-right
We could be happy here in the half-light
(Here in the half-light)
You’re not like everybody
