by and by ft. Mary Ann Alexander Lyrics

You're the unforgiving skin over my veins

The indivisible grace of dancing

A certain clarity like city lanes

And you

You're beyond me

You'll be gone by and by

And I'm still not who I want to be

A tongue held back, my right hand on your cheek

Sing like an open song

Sing like the words belong

In your heart

You're too far removed

To know from what I do

That I do for you

I stopped thinking halfway through

To invest in the sight of you

Some sense

Some time

Singing with eyes I never knew

I can't compare to a part of you

I'm lost

I'm slight

All that I do is wrong

Maybe I should stay strong

I know it's hard

What does it mean to you

When I say I love you

Do you love me too?

She said "it's all in pieces

And I'm still not who i want to be"

To be

Sing like an open song

Sing like the words belong

In your heart

You're too far removed

To know from what I do

That I do for you

All that I do is wrong

Maybe I should stay strong

I know it's hard

What does it mean to you

When I say I love you

Do you love me too?

Put your warmth on me

And say ah
