Erin McKeown - Envelopes Of Glassine Şarkı Sözleri

envelopes of glassine
spoiled the surprise
took that tender moment
see what's inside
i was vegas, you were rome
close your eyes, think of me.

i held nine pictures
lined left to right
where edge met edge
see what's inside
what faith would not carry
impatience denied
i was vegas, you were rome
wasn't built in a day.

this gambol cannot last
this courtship will slide
envelopes of glassine
spoiled the surprise
i'll walk from vegas, you sail from rome
letters have met.
