Prophets on Hold Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can I call you sometime, talk it out on the phone?
We don't have to be lovers, we could be less alone
It's a rough, rocky road and it's gonna get steep
I just wanted your soft tone to allow me to sleep
[Chorus]
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
[Verse 2]
I just want you to know, all your problems are mine
I will breathe them like fire smoke, I will make us divine
Underneath your thin skin, we are prophets on hold
Elemental disciples waiting for our time to unfold
[Chorus]
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
[Bridge]
And I dreamt about you breathing, we're all in thrall to the past
And I dreamt about you leaving, living in the same house
You kiss awkward, lips dried and closed
He was the first one you cared for, it lasted for years
And I close my eyes to see you again
And I close my eyes to see you again
[Chorus]
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
Can I call you sometime, talk it out on the phone?
We don't have to be lovers, we could be less alone
It's a rough, rocky road and it's gonna get steep
I just wanted your soft tone to allow me to sleep
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
I just want you to know, all your problems are mine
I will breathe them like fire smoke, I will make us divine
Underneath your thin skin, we are prophets on hold
Elemental disciples waiting for our time to unfold
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
And I dreamt about you breathing, we're all in thrall to the past
And I dreamt about you leaving, living in the same house
You kiss awkward, lips dried and closed
He was the first one you cared for, it lasted for years
And I close my eyes to see you again
And I close my eyes to see you again
And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel
You're just a person
And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
A soft summer unwinds
