Wings Lyrics by HouseTreeHouse

Talk of the Town

2020

It's gonna be so hard to watch you leave
Because in the end I never really knew you
And though it seems like cutting nonexistent strings
Would likely take away the sting
I think I'd rather miss something than nothing

Never thought I'd give a eulogy for dreams and awkward scenes
The fragile beginnings of birds who never find their wings
And if I could tell it the way it looked outside reality
It wouldn't be boring, no, it couldn't be

So here's to the thought of you
I knew the ending all along
Did nothing, of all the things that I could do
At least I never did you wrong

This is how the beat's supposed to read, a little more busy
More dancing in the streets, a little less unrequited sleep
Don't regret a single word I said, it's more the ones I held in deep
They started to scare me, so unruly

So here's to the thought of you
I knew the ending all along
Did nothing, of all the things that I could do
At least I never did you wrong

So here's to the thought of you
I knew the ending all along
Did nothing, of all the things that I could do
At least I never did you wrong

It's gonna be so hard to watch you leave
Because in the end I never really knew you
And though it seems like cutting nonexistent strings
Would likely take away the sting
I think those strings were really strings, and I haven't learned a thing

So here's to the thought of you
I knew the ending all along
Did nothing, of all the things that I could do
I never meant to do you wrong
