Already Lost
Adrianne Lenker
Already lost beside the line
The mirror is your eye on mine
The mirror is your eye on mine
Trying hard to figure it out of here
The centre is a hole in the sphere
The centre is a hole in the sphere
Say your name, I hope to get it right
You come into my room every night
You come into my room every night
A thousand years or more
And I've nеver seen this face
Nevеr heard this voice before
The honey hills and the frosted Sun
Bluer than the ocean
Bluer than the ocean
Why do leaves turn yellow and fall
And who absorbs it all?
Who absorbs it all?
Holding so near, standing so far
How slow and how fast you are
How slow and how fast you are
A thousand years or more
And I've never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
Though my love is writing blind
It can always read my mind
It can always read my mind
Shadows shatter at the edges of a smile
We've been down here for a while
We've been down here
A thousand years or more
And I've never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
