I know i'll never see you 

I know i'll [bad word] into your body walking through the crooked streets 

I know i'll never hear you

I know i'll never hear you like a sound that wafts inside from outside there 

I know that if i waited i know that if i wait a thousand days will lie wasted with thoughts of you

My love i've pictured this:

Your violet eyelids opened to say "here's where you've been" 

Your lips open to say "my darling it's been so very long and i'm in pain" 

I know i'll never feel you

I know i'll never get so close to you that i can't smell anything else

I know i'll never see you 

I know that where you go i'll still be far from where you are 

My love i've pictured this: 

Your violet eyelids opened to say "here's where you've been" 

Your lips open to say "my darling it's been so very long and i'm in pain" sometimes i picture all your fingers 

Sometimes they're crawling down my spine 

Sometimes they're buttoning your jacket

Sometimes you're far but you're still mine

I know that it is raining 

And i know that the rain will soak you through 

And leave you like the tattered sky 

I know i go in circles 

I know that window panes bring only rain and not your face

Sometimes i picture all your fingers 

Sometimes they're crawling down my spine

Sometimes they're buttoning your jacket 

Sometimes you're far but you're still mine

I know that it is raining and 

I know that the rain will soak you through and leave you like the tattered sky

I know i go in circles

I know that window panes bring only rain and not your face
