Sleepy Wife Lyrics by NQ Arbuckle

The Future Happens Anyway

2014

Life is better than death
But when will the phone ring?
When does the night end?
Close the windows upstairs
It looks like a big rain
The wind is blowing
Where are you my sleepy wife?
Come back to me
To talk all night
Steady eyes and mingling hands
There's nothing like watching
A pretty girl dance
Let the wind out of your stare
It's not worth keeping
I know we've been here before
And everything is changing
Running rings around fingers
It looks like forever
Ask me for anything
I hope I'll be here
Which way's up?
It's hard to say
Is this tonight?
Or are we yesterday?
But I know you
Better than you think
The wind is blowing
Nothing is open
In this house
In and out of light
I'll wake you up
The sleepy wife
Cause I think I see
Life ahead
And she's pretty much dancing
Herself to death
Let the wind out of your stare
It's not worth keeping
I know we've been here before
And everything is changing
Running rings around fingers
It looks like forever
Ask me for anything
I know I'll be here
Running rings around fingers
I know it's forever
I know it's forever
