Taxicab Window
Drift
City through scratched glass. Vocals blur past streetlights, the sound of transit as film. This track is the ride you'll remember better than the destination.
Lyrics
The meter's running but I'm in no rush
Watching storefronts close their eyes
Your coat is in the back seat still
From some Tuesday I can't place
Every window holds a kitchen light
Someone's putting something away
I used to think that looked like loneliness
Now it looks like the end of a beautiful day
The driver hums a song I almost know
The bridge is lit from underneath
I'm carrying your name in my pocket
Like a stone I've made smooth
Every window holds a kitchen light
Someone's putting something away
I used to think that looked like loneliness
Now it looks like the end of a beautiful day
Maybe missing you is just
Another way of keeping you close
Another way of keeping you close
