lyrics

a portal to new physics
where one and two never add to three
to spot a clue in the lineup
the ghost of you haunts the dancefloor, oh!

all my basic instincts fail me to see just what might
leaving me with you in someone's sight
how could you ask my love?

reading through pursed lips framing your mouth
then you wonder if i have some doubts
how could you ask my love?

your curtains and drawn too tightly for sightlines
hiding a piece of your heart

you said you knew how to hit hard
defenses to all the 'naughts' you dream
but never take up a new language
until you said all the thoughts you scheme

in our native tongues
we're tied up trying to remember
promises we made in surrender
how could you ask my love?

bandages and patches to rip off
covering the scars from our last talk
how could you ask my love?

your curtains and drawn too tightly for sightlines
hiding a piece of your heart

just like your first time
you let another in your arms
you take the right piece out
it only seems to fall apart

you know i'll never let you
it doesn't matter what we edit
we'll leave the right side up
to carry with us all the things we never said

you know i'll never let you down
