I'm sorry I didn't reply I was doing things
 I didn't think to reply, I'm sorry
 It was nice, I was lying on grass with others, lying, squinting
 I could barely read my phone with the sunlight
 But yes, I read it, sorry
 Everyone squinting together, clothes warm on the grass
 There was hummus and a frisbee gliding back and forwards over my head
 One eye closed, winking, sunlight dappling over their dresses
 Messes of spread and crumbs, I didn't think to reply 'til now
 I'm just sitting now, don't know what to say
 How are you so far away? Is it sunny?
 The sun just went down, I thought about you
 Days drag slowly when it's warm, softly running ice creams onto the soil
 We kicked a ball about, seems like all one moment, motionless
 I think about you walking through the door
 Quickly smiling and your hand on the handle
 Fingers curled and closing, other hand to my hair
 I have to go, so much time dragging slowly
 Nights asleep, I'll try to dream of you
 Nights asleep, I'll try to dream of you
 Nights asleep, I'll try to dream of you
 Nights asleep, I'll-
 ♪
 Under kaleidoscope meshes of fabric
 Bodies lifted and wilted and wound and back and forth
 Laughter cut the air, their hair twirled with the dresses so far away
 Other images float and glisten among the spots of sunlight
 Behind closed eyelids, morphing shapes of red and black and white
 Legs apart and close again, concealing buildings
 Leaning to the air and midges twirling 'round a fading light
 Shadows cast of familiar faces
 Place thoughts of love among the thoughts of flying insects
 Sex and meshed faces place thoughts of
 Open door, quickly smile and get in, fingers curled and closing
 One eye closed, one hand closed on another hand holding hair and neck
 I missed you
 Quickly smile into neck, running hands, rubbing back
 Back and forwards, four times holding neck hair
 Folding down over cotton
 Breathing sighs (hands to hold, too hard holding)
 Breath dragging ('cause you must be cold)
 Step inside (hands, thighs, I missed you thirty times over)
 (Time holding back, hands together)
 Billowing sighs and turns thirsty, thirty times
 Overborne limbs and tear pillows
 Learning again to manage taking time
 Making marks on squinting eyes, closing distance
 Legs apart from days dragging between them soft pressed lips
 Parting time again and down meaning feeling
 Feelings pressing, pressed lips mark closed eyes and down
 Thirty times over
 Turn around and soft pillow billowing cotton, dragging hands
 Between legs apart, from the days apart and nights asleep
 Tears meaning apart again
 Thousand words, rhythm cracks on cotton hands
 Billowing sighs and turns thirsty, thirty times
 Overborne limbs and tear pillows
 Learning again to manage taking time
 Making marks on squinting eyes, closing distance
 Legs apart from days dragging, between then soft pressed lips
 Parting time, apart from days dragging between them
 Time, making marks on squinting eyes, closing distance
 Legs apart, pressed lips, parting time again
