Intro

Verse

Forgive me my ties, connections and loose ends

This is for the eyes eyes buried in my neck

With a promise of the future, of the uncertain I play it so sure

Our drifting thing will someday land

Chorus

And I could take you home

The lights would, would twitch and blow

And you could finally see

The "us" that we're supposed to be

Verse

When you picture me away, It's Alfie Elkins '66

But you didn't see my face

When all the kids dancing brought down that place

I was more Alvy Singer

Each time you put me on the train I'm less and less sure you'll do it again

Don't do it again

Chorus

'Cuz we could raise our flag

First hem the tattered edge

Close our eyes and be

In love at seventeen

(Close) Close our eyes and be (whoa)

(Close) Close our eyes and be, be

(Close) Close our eyes and be (whoa)

In love

In love at seventeen
