Drifting Thing Lyrics by Polar Bear Club

Chasing Hamburg

0

Forgive me my ties
Connections and loose ends
This is for the eyes
Eyes buried in my neck

With a promise of the future
Of the uncertain, I play it so sure
Our drifting thing
Will someday land

And I could take you home
The lights would, would twitch and blow
And you could finally see
The us that we're supposed to be

When you picture me away
It's Alfie Elkins '66
But you didn't see my face

When all the kids dancing brought down that place
I was more Alvy Singer
Each time you put me on the train
I'm less and less sure you'll do it again

Don't do it again

'Cause we could raise our flag
First hem the tattered edge
Close our eyes and be
In love at seventeen

Close, close our eyes and be
Close, close our eyes and be, be
Close, close our eyes and be
In love, in love at seventeen
