"Blindness" lyrics - THE MILK CARTON KIDS

THE MILK CARTON KIDS
"Blindness"

Last night in a dream I travelled back in time
Our feet were in the water and you put your hand in mine
I was blinded by the sunrise but I could not look away
You were in there somewhere, I could not get you to stay

[Chorus:]
This is where I live
In the spaces in between
The harsh light of the mornin'
And the magic of the dream
In one of them I'm dyin'
In one I never do
In one of them your breathin'
So I know you're there too

Finally, I woke up in the darkness of the night
The shadow of rain fallin' in the lone street light
I thought I heard a whisper reachin' from the past
An echo, a reminder: nothin' ever lasts

[Chorus:]
This is where I live
In the spaces in between
The harsh light of the mornin'
And the magic of the dream
In one of them I'm dyin'
In one I never do
In one of them your breathin'
So I know you're there too
