Quiet Rooster - Instead Lyrics




I walked away from you one day
You didn't see your frames were clouded
You might have thought it strange
But there are days go by
That I can't stop myself from thinkin' 'bout it
And all the eyes I met that day
Were half glued down by falling rain
How is it then I can't refrain
From pulling your shades
From my head
Instead

I slow my step around the corner
Where I know you used to wait
I remember asking for your name
But I got caught up in the rain
And may have missed it
And like an inkless pen had penned it
I'm just trying to read the indent
Inside my head
That's all I meant
When I said
Instead

I hope that you don't mind
But I've been following your footsteps now for blocks
See, there's a question on my mind
And I'm just trying to see if I can walk it off
Because all the cabs have lights on
And my biggest fear is might one lend it's eye
And not pass by, but stop at your feet
You'd leave
And let all these words I could have said
To wait and wilt into regrets
So as it rains I stop to move them
Out from my brain
To your head
Instead
