The Closing Eye Songtext
von Josh Pyke

Like a dream that′s come to life
In the wake of spider night
And the phone light flickers ephemeral
Illuminates them like
A sign of change to come
Can I remove myself from
My winter skin is shed on the wind
In threads like silver scars

And I know that you've been hanging on
A thread that I′ve been letting go)
And I know that you've been letting go
A thread that I've been hanging on)

Until you go
Please don′t let your love become
The closing eye on everyone
Until you go


And the willow pattern of
A cooling coffee cup
How the steam rows curl and now it′s forgotten
It's how we are
And the corners came alive
And at times you were still inside
You are watching from a web that you wove
From a tangle you tied

And I know that you′ve been hanging on
A thread that I've been letting go)
And I know that you′ve been letting go
A thread that I've been hanging on)

Until you go
Please don′t let your love become
The closing eye on everyone
Until you go
Please don't let your love become
The closing eye on everyone
Until you go


And I wrote you letters in my head
So many things I never said
Words are only wind and yet
They're the ones that we forget to say
(We forget to say)
They′re the ones that we regret to say
(We regret to say)
They′re the ones that we forget to say
(It's the ones that we forget to say)
They′re the ones

Until you go
Please don't let your love become
The closing eye on everyone
Until you go
Please don′t let your love become
The closing eye on everyone
Until you go
Until you go
