lyrics

(the afternoon)

The blinds are down and neither of us mentioned that it's three
And the light comes through in stripes across the ceiling and your arm
And there's a version of this hour where you turn and look at me
And every version I have had of it has done me nothing but harm

The afternoon, the afternoon, and neither of us moves
The afternoon, the afternoon, and neither of us will
There's a train at half past four that one of us is going to use
And we've both known which one since April and we're lying here still

I've started touching you less. On purpose. In advance.
It's a stupid way to save yourself. I'm doing it. It's a chance.

The afternoon, the afternoon, and neither of us moves
The afternoon, the afternoon, and neither of us will
There's a train at half past four that one of us is going to use
And we've both known which one since April and we're lying here still

(lying here still)
