lyrics

I've got a longer thought of you
It won't disappear if we're forced to move
I'll whine and wander with no torch to use
and grow a jungle just to keep the sun's rays out

I'm like a wheel spinning seaward
With no force there to shield

Our thoughts did complement so well
But go on, force a compliment then tell me it's intended

Now that I've got a longer thought of you
My mood gets steered by your nods and news
But the litter you give me, I fear it's all untrue
Are my worries ghost's wrong, what am i jealous about?

I scrutinize every lyric
Apply it to us as a lesson

Our thoughts did complement so well
But go on, force a compliment then tell me it's intended
