The Next Time You Say Forever

Album: Middle Cyclone (2009)

  • I hear the tiniest sparks in the tenderest sound
    Diving music, drowning the sound
    waltzing with the hairs upon my arms
    And your fire flood alarm, and you tremble
    And you stumble, and you scrape up your palms
    I can't stay here to hold your hand

    I've been away for so long
    I've lost my taste for home
    And that's a dirty fallow feeling
    To be the dangling ceiling
    From the roof came crashing down

    Peeling in the heat, vanish in the rain
    The next time you say forever
    I'll punch you in your face
    Just because you don't believe it
    Doesn't mean I didn't mean it
    You never know when I'll show you the never
    You never know when I'll show you the never Writer/s: Neko Case, Paul Rigby
