lyrics

I was braced
for a gut-shot New Year's Eve.
A boat beyond the shipping lanes
trailing wakeless into spring.
That's when I met you on the street.

Think back before I even knew your name--
how cold it was to be a room without a flame.

By July,
all good things around me new.
The atlas lied--
my middle west became unglued.
Holy terror, little you.

Just think back before I even knew your name--
how cold it was to be a room without a flame.

When I feel brave you are the song that swells in my head.
But bruise the silence with your voice in case I forget

to think back before I even knew your name.
How cold it was to be a room without a flame.
