Lyrics Great Lake Swimmers

Great Lake Swimmers

In A Certain Light

So little space in the degrees in between us

Moving so fast, hardly anybody notices

Into a constant and restless dream

It's written on my hands, and this is what I mean

A strand of hair, a certain hue

These are my hands, they belong to you

And how to talk you into believing in yourself

And how to get ready for the change in the weather

And how to pack all of the things for the trip

And what will you do, what will you do when you get there

A single frame passing on a screen

These are my hands, and this is what I mean

Hiding there, in plain sight

I see you in a certain light

I couldn't smile when I needed to

You were there when I needed you

I couldn't smile when I needed to

And you were there when I needed you

I couldn't smile when I needed to

You were there when I needed you

I couldn't smile when I needed to

You were there when I needed you

Couldn't smile when I needed to

You were there when I needed you

Couldn't smile when I needed to

You were there when I needed you
