how we know

you spoon water like love
and i will take it
if you can take it

this is how we know
this is how we go
this is how we know

i don’t know what to say
when you’re so far from me
i can barely make you
i count two two three
breathe two three

you spoon water like love
and i will take it
if you can take it

you spin circle in verse
and i will take it
if you can take it

this is how we go
soft and slowly
don’t you know me?
know i count two, i count for you
given the thought i would have you again
i count two two three
breathe two three
you walk alone, you talk in code
it’s a light i can’t decipher
but eyes shut is somehow enough
under trick light, under trick eyelids

given the thought i would have you again
i count two two three
breathe two three
