Hum Along Lyrics

You'll never hear this song, you'll never see the movie in my head
But you infest my sleep and your figure creeps
Through my walls and hums above my bed
I know your name and that you're photogenic and tall
But I've never heard you talk
And there's something about you that stabs me right throughIt isn't right for me to paint your picture every night but I do
(I can't find sleep)
And it feels so wrong to sing this song
(I breathe too deep into the sky)
But maybe somehow, you'll hear me and hum along
(As I walk and sing you'll hear a song)
You'll hum along, you'll hum alongAnd I've only seen you once at your graduation
No cinematic glow or soft rock soundtrack
And I watched you move and breathe and cry
And it felt so wrongIt isn't right for me to paint your picture every night but I do
(I can't find sleep)
And it feels so wrong to sing this song
(I breathe too deep into the sky)

But maybe somehow, you'll hear me and hum along
(As I walk and sing you'll hear a song)Maybe you'd be kidnapped by pirates
And they would take you to their hideout as pirates often do
But I'd find the secret map and I would vigilante-bushwhack
Through the jungles of PeruJust to save you and I'd take you north to Mexico
Where you would tell me your life story on the steps of a Mayan temple
Where we'd camp singing nonsense songs
In 12 bars to the jaguars, until you'd sense meYour eyes convincing and I would kiss you like a hero in the half-light
Dryer sheets and peach shampoo
The smell of palm leaves, I'd sleep against you
Until the natives found us but they would crown us king and queen
And we could stay there, spend our days there, eating guava by the sea
And I could understand your views and you could fall in love with meAnd while the silly human race talks to druids in outer-space
We grow old and laugh about this song
And between the jungle and the stars
You sing nonsense songs in 12 bars to me
And in my sleep I hum along
You'll never hear this song
You'll never see the movie in my head
