lyrics

when i find a lover he might have your name.
his eyes may be the color, the color yours do take.
these things don’t have to change.
we each read like favorite books.
though these new creatures may sound strange,
still we’ll sing with them in the woods,
because we should.

and when it finally snows for us,
these songs will stick to eyelashes.
these words shall glow from star-eyed homes.
and i hold five fingers not my own.

and we’ll pretend just like we always did,
with costumes fit for gypsy kids.
with arms so long our hands are hidden.
we’re so small that nothing fits.

you may just have the voice he does,
and sing with strings like he would do.
and soon you’d find my secret was,
this love was always you.
