[Verse 1]
Shed the days like skin, pray for evenings in
Hold their hands in the street when you walk them off to school
A box too full to shut, a cardboard paper cut
The bleeding edge of a picture of your parents when they were cool

[Chorus]
So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
It's okay
I like you in glasses

[Verse 2]
Shovels in the sand
A playdough wedding band
A drowning princess in a tangle of towels on the floor
An old familiar ache, the little pills we take
The thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the door

[Chorus]
So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
It's okay
[Bridge]
It's on the board
Someone's been double-booking
I've got time
How is your next week looking?

[Verse 3]
The house shifts into place, a little breathing space
The radiators and the floorboards will argue while we sleep
There's water in the walls, the stairs make waterfalls
Down in the basement the soft sound of a river digging deep

[Chorus]
So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
It's okay
I like you in glasses
