That Would Help Songtext
von Townsend

Pacing back and forth across
Notebook pages that hold my thoughts
Similes and metaphors set the tone
Dreams that I can′t afford where I call my home
The piano tells me things I did not know
It's so melancholy in the early morning glow
I used to try to pass the time
But now something′s changed
And I wanna hold tight


To every second that I spend
Not by myself
Because my head hangs low when it's time to go
and that's not how it always felt
Don′t go, stay with me
Think it′s finally time that you open your eyes
And you see what you need to see

Simple things don't taste the same
Every time that record plays
Don′t go, stay with me
Your smallest finger wraps around my own and that's all that I need to see

Every second that I spend by myself
Is another second wasted
And that′s the way it's always felt
Can you hear me?
Am I screaming loud enough?
Can you scream this back to me?
Cause I think that would help
I think that would help

I think that would help
I think that would help
I think that would help
