Somewhere Adjacent Lyrics

I was young and a bachelor

I started looking for answers

When you traveled to meet me

And we talked like two dancers

Ducking somewhere adjacent

Then the rain hit

You sat at the table

You were looking right at me

Before I burned any candles

Or even made you so happy

And the thunder seemed calculated

To keep us in

And I stood where the lightening hit

I've noticed the gold in this

Never been quite the same man since

I've noticed the gold in this

I said we'll die when we're older

If we don't die from insistence

Me, probably hunched over

You, hopefully christain

And you'll get into heaven

And finally let yourself go

And then we picked up some peaches

Somewhere deep in Virginia

We were off to the beaches

Where the sun tried to kill us

And I muttered to you "you're the truest thing I've ever known"

I stood where the lightening hit

I've noticed the gold in this

Never been quite the same man since

I've noticed the gold in this

I still burn for you baby

Somewhere deep in the water

You're still somewhere adjacent

In the eyes of your daughters

In your plans for this city

In the church that needs painting

In the glass on the table

In the ways that you changed me

I'm still looking for answers

Until I find out you fixed me

And that rose from my garden

Was just to get you to kiss me

You're all over this city

You're all over this city
