The Mater

[00:19.89] I fell into you in the shadow of the staircase
[00:25.35] Washed my hands of you in the kitchen sink
[00:30.29] And in that house I knew we'd never close this distance
[00:35.63] You said baby, we are closer than you think
[00:40.65] So I made love to the idea of your involvement
[00:45.88] And the conversation we had in the dark
[00:50.96] You said you'd never judge the way I solve my problems
[00:56.33] Then you left me in the garden talking art
[01:01.83] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[01:09.88] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[01:17.16] That's all
[01:22.55] Fell out of my soft head the night we left The Mater
[01:28.47] Bravo, maestro, never seen the sky so pink
[01:33.23] Fell into your soft bed and stayed the morning after
[01:38.41] I said, "Baby, we are colder than we think"
[01:44.02] So I made love to the idea of your approval
[01:49.15] And the conversations we had with our hands
[01:54.36] I don't go in for that sort of thing, I told you
[01:59.73] Then I sang, "Stand By Your Man"
[02:05.52] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[02:13.04] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[02:19.21] That's all
[02:26.27] I should have told you then that I had slipped you on inside my head
[02:31.92] There are bits of you in every journey home
[02:36.63] Is it so bad, I like the way I look from your side of the bed?
[02:42.13] You said baby, did you think I didn't know?
[02:47.18] Still, I made love to the idea of our collusion
[02:52.65] And the conversation we had on the floor
[02:57.89] While the backroom boys earned our disapproval
[03:03.04] Come on, David, sing one more
[03:08.40] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[03:15.47] That's all
[03:19.08] I just wish we laughed in time, that's all
[03:26.18] That's all
[03:27.60]
