Lyrics Emmy the Great

Emmy the Great

War

The dream that i have is always the same

a foot falls like an echo of a step i didn't take

and i see you coming in like you were never gone,

tell me, why did i wake?

Here in the world i was hiding from,

they're expecting it to rain

they say that the winter clears the drains

that time heals all things

and they said that the thought of you would fade, well

i see nothing change.

and the dream that i have, breaks just like the day

i walk along the shore,

i take a picture of the waves

and then i throw it to the floor,

i say why did i wake?

Here in the world there is nothing more than your

absence

now the sky is turning grey

now the birds have left the bay

now time is shrinking and they

said that the thought of you would fade

well i feel nothing change.

and hey, do you remember me the way

that i remember you?

and every movement of the waves,

oh they replaced the train

all the people went away, and i feel nothing

they say that winter clears the drains

well i dream lightly.. of sunshine
