Zen - Snowballs Lyrics

Hello stranger in the night
Did you make a point to get it right
Did you cut the scene before the fight
Change the color of my tie

Throwing snowballs from the window pane
Hitting speeding cars and aeroplanes
Reaching always for the left-hand lane
I will gladly take the blame
Listen closely when I say

That I'd love the shadow of your shadow
If it looked at me the same way
If it laughed a little crazy
If it finished beer with breakfast
If it struggled to get almost dressed
And back again

Welcome home the ever-grey
The halfway-opened mail
The warm champagne
Take your place atop the weather vane
Spin again you haven't won
A little wind won't kill the fun

But I'd play hopscotch in a hammock
I would fix the world with just one look
I'd dream my trampoline a starship
Jump through Saturn's rings and backflip over
Our white picket fence
My love will never have a past tense

I wish I could freeze the rain
Cloak the city in a softer frame
Find the footprints that I still can save
Let them run for one more day
Maybe this time they will choose to stay

Then I'll be a snowflake
On your purple coat in autumn
When you left me
When I told you
It's too late to go out driving
Ask me now if I was lying
'Cause here's the sun and it's still shining
Through the window
Melting snow and casting shadows
Upon shadows
Upon your half on the pillow
And they always have the same gaze
And they won't say if they're waiting
But they're drunk on cheaper liquor
And they want me to remember
How it felt the night I met you
But the light is getting tangled
If I just could change the angle
Maybe snowballs wouldn't chase you away
Away
Away
Away
