Intro
x 2
I am walking out in the rain
And I am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again
And I am getting no where with you
And I cant let it go and I cant get through
The old woman behind the pink curtain
And the closed door on the first floor
Shes listening through the airshaft
To see how long our swan song can last
And use both hands, Now use both hands
Oh, no, dont close your eyes
I am writing graffiti on your body
I am drawing the story of
How hard we tried
How hard we tried
I am watching your chest rise and fall
Like the tides of my life and the rest of it all
And your bones have been my bedframe
And your flesh has been my pillow
Ive been waiting for sleep to offer up the deep
With both hands
Ah-h-h-ah, Both Hands
In each others shadows we grew less and less tall
And eventually our theories couldnt explain it all
And Im recording our history now on the bedroom floor
And eventually the landlord will come and paint over it all
And I am walking out in the rain
And I am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again
And I am getting no where with you
And I cant let it go and I cant get through
Both hands, Now use both hands
Oh, no, dont close your eyes
I am writing graffiti on your body
I am drawing the story of
How hard we tried
How hard we tried
How hard we tried
