Ellipsis

Swayin' lights on a hillside, almost forgot my name
 Carside houses in the desert tide, they all look the same
 And for a fleeting moment, there was terror in your eyes
 A haunting revelation or a clever disguise
 Just give me that ellipsis
 There was never any harm from a couple of dots
 The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
 We built a fire in the kitty-litter mill
 The old brick barely took the heat
 Took a lot just to get our fill, pile of hot coals on cold concrete
 At a glance I noticed, there were tears in your eyes
 A total realization, we'd have to say goodbye
 Just give me that ellipsis
 There was never any harm from a couple of dots
 The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
 Please grant me that illusion
 Of a different time, where the story's there, written with care
 And nothing ever changes
 ♪
 Could you really see yourself completely fadin' away
 Or was it more like the reflection in a window pane?
 Not quite so vivid, a couple shadows overlapped
 And everything behind you, looks pale and trapped
 I've been lookin' 'round the streets tonight
 With a melody so poor
 And a collection of some words that rhyme
 Help the drama to unfold
 Just give me that ellipsis
 There was never any harm from a couple of dots
 The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
 Please grant me that illusion
 Of a different time, where the story's there, written with care
 And nothing ever changes
 Just give me that ellipsis
 There was never any harm from a couple of dots
 The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
 Please grant me that illusion
 Of a different time, where the stories there, written with care
 And nothing ever changes
