Can You Hear Me Now Lyrics

Let's make it easy, let's get out of town

Where you can, sit me down

And tell me stories, remind me how we got here

Cause right now, all I see, piling up behind me is a cloud

A fire on either side, and in front just the daylight dying.

Can you hear me now? I was trying so hard

Can you hear me now? I was trying to understand

How the sunlight slides through your hands

To understand how the sunlight slides

Oh you can stand around and dissolve into me,

Or you can dive under wild and free

Sit down beside me or wrestle all night

The door is wide open, the door is shut tight

Everything I could carry, everything I could lift

Everything that was easy, I felt everything shift

Can you hear me now? I was trying so hard

Can you hear me now? I was trying to understand

How the sunlight slides through your hands

To understand how the sunlight slides

Through your hands

I'm tying it up, i'm closer now brother

I'll call you again when i've figured it out

How the pain still seeps in behind the glass

You said, "all you need is one perfect paragraph"

Paint it behind the fence in a barren lot

With the bright green grass from the winter rain

Let it crumble there, let it wash away

Let it evaporate
