Vienna Teng - Recessional lyrics

It's so beautiful here, she says, This moment now And this moment, now And I never thought I would find her here: Flannel and satin My four walls transformed But she's looking at me Straight to center No room at all for any other thought And I know I don't want this Oh I swear I don't want this There's a reason not to want this But I forgot In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder Hair falling forward, mouth all askew Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead: Pa**engers missing We're looking for you And she dreams through the noise, Her weight against me Face pressed into the corduroy grooves Maybe it means nothing Maybe it means nothing Maybe it means nothing But I'm afraid to move And the words: they're everything and nothing I want to search for her in the offhand remarks Who are you, taking coffee, no sugar? Who are you, echoing street signs? Who are you, the stranger in the shell of a lover Dark curtains drawn by the pa**age of time? Oh words like rain, how sweet the sound Well anyway, she says, I'll see you around...
