These Days Lyrics

There were nights and mornings
When you come to me
Found your way into my bones, my joints
Into my veins
Like an animal you coiled your darkness around me
You spelled your name in charcoal
All over my bodyBut these days
I just walk with you
These days
I let you stay
A little further away
But I walk with you
These days
I'll let you stayThere were summer days and nights
When I was blind to you
You were quiet and you were still
Even when the moon was full
My temporary state of lightness would scare me

After all, I was sure
You were most wrong then, I was daringBut these days
I just walk with you
These days
I let you stay
These days
I just talk with you
These days
I let you stay
A little further away
But I walk with you
These days
I let you stayThe things you've shown me over the years
The roads you blocked and how you'll define meThese days
I just walk with you
These days
I let you stay
These days
I just talk with you
These days, these days
