lyrics

We don’t kiss under backseat blankets / But we might kiss in the car / We don’t want to be anywhere else, but / We don’t really care where we are / We don’t look for those things we can’t find, but / We look out for one another / You look quite a bit like your sister, but / I look nothing like my brother / And it might be a little too easy / Speaking only to compare / But we don’t care where the talking leads / As long as the talking’s there / Until the quiet comfort comes / That old words gather up / We might kiss on the mouth or the cheek, but / We don’t kiss to interrupt, no! / And we fell in love in the month of May / But then June came and it went away / We tried to reconcile July / But by August I couldn’t look you in the eye / When September came I wept / But fall fell down like a heaven-sent / And by November I believed / That Christmas would erase the grief / We may solve it all someday / But for now I’ll just look away / We don’t see each other that often / So when we do we plan every bit / We make a detailed itinerary, but / We rarely adhere to it / We don’t cage up our expectations but / Exaltations are key / You speak clearly in silver-tipped smiles / That crochet scarves of praise onto me / And we need to dress up because our winter walks / Confuse the forests for trees / But we don’t need stacks of maps, pens, or papers / To leave our footsteps for the breeze / And we stride until our hands hide / In our sleeves, lips frozen together / No, we don’t see each other that often / But we’re not impeded by the weather! / … / But January, no resolve / And Valentines can’t solve it all / So I kept my head down in March / Through April showers, cold and dark / And we may solve it all someday / But for now I’ll just look away.
