Powerlines Lyrics by Sam MacPherson

Powerlines

2023

[Verse 1]
Remember New York in a hot flash in our hotel room
Walked you home on your birthday to your childhood home
You showed me things and you said the words I still hold on to
I had secrets telling you were the first to know
Now I'm parallel to a world that I had with you
I'm moving on and I can't stop moving back
It's out of my hands what I wear reminds me of you
It's out of my hands that

[Chorus]
Even after all this time
I still wake up on you and I
And it can't just be the powerlines from your house to mine
That keeps your heart wired to my chest
Like it's always been
Almost like it used to be
Underneath the powerlinеs in the August heat
Wherе I didn't have to dream you next to me

[Verse 2]
You were always aware of what you really wanted
All I wanted to know was where do I fit in
You were looking at me like I was narcissistic
But I'm still here wondering
Was the timing wrong? Did the wires get crossed?
I was feeling sparks, you were feeling lost
Now the streets go black and the lights stay off
I'm in the dark but there you are

[Chorus]
Even after all this time
I still wake up on you and I
And it can't just be the powerlines from your house to mine
That keeps your heart wired to my chest
Like it's always been
Almost like it used to be
Underneath the powerlines in the August heat
Where I didn't have to dream you next to me
Dream you next to me

[Bridge]
Even after all this time
I still wake up on you and I
And it can't just be the powerlines from your house to mine
That keeps my heart wired to your chest

[Chorus]
Like it's always been
Almost like it used to be
Underneath the powerlines in the August heat
Where I didn't have to dream you next to me
Dream you next to me
Dream you next to me
