lyrics

She wears eight rings around her fingers or a couple in her ears
When I met her, I sang butterflies, wouldn't you?
She says I'm not afraid of anything except for maybe fear
But you could help me keep the cold out, couldn't you?
If you would give me all the riches in the world
I'd still be running from the future with that girl

Burning breezes, slotted spoons
Here too fast and gone too soon
But just like the moon, she's turning over
Seatback airplane magazines
I'll read to you, you'll read to me
Oh, sweet possibility and Clover

She drives her mom's car from the 90s, she reminds me of her dad
She introduced us in a restaurant, wouldn't you?
She says I just need space to breathe or else I'm going to go mad
But you could let me for my own awhile, couldn't you?
If you would take me to the edges of the earth
I'd still be waiting by the phone to hear from her

Burning breezes, slotted spoons
Here too fast and gone too soon
But just like the moon, she's turning over
Seatback airplane magazines
I'll read to you, you'll read to me
Oh, sweet possibility and Clover

She lost her papers in a canyon when she tried to let them go
When I found her, she sang butterflies, wouldn't you?
She says I'm broken like a watch, sometimes too fast, sometimes too slow
But you could hold my hands real steady, couldn't you?
If you would make me very smart and very strong
I'd still regret that nothing ever lasts for long

Burning breezes, slotted spoons
Here too fast and gone too soon
But just like the moon, she's turning over
Seatback airplane magazines
I'll read to you, you'll read to me
Oh, sweet possibility and Clover

Burning breezes, slotted spoons
Here too fast and gone too soon
But just like the moon, she's turning over
Seatback airplane magazines
I'll read to you, you'll read to me
Oh, sweet possibility
and Clover
