Touch and Go Lyrics
We stepped out in the shatter light
And I watched as we blew away
Through a sea of seats
And the tangled-up streetsAnd the cities in a grey-blue haze
In the catalogue
All the places fold in
Underneath a daylight moonGrey eyes, brown eyes, mad nights, red skies
Well I keep them in a jumble room
So while I am the one who waits here
We all know that it's all such a game of Touch And GoLet's play at Touch And Go
I'm waking up in the moving windows
Going out to play the game of Touch And Go
'Cause it's all so touch and goThe summer boy in his dark-blue shirt
Getting letters from Tokyo
And we're sitting in a shaky lake
Or gliding over to a girl with a broken noseThere's motorway sparks
And meetings in the park
And fires from years ago
You can watch your friendsThrough this tiny lens
Then you'll know that there's no way home
So while I am the one who waits here
We all know that it's all such a game of Touch And GoLet's play at Touch And Go
Waking up in the moving windows
Going out again to play the game of Touch And Go
'Cause it's all so touch and goLet's go
Touch
Go
Touch And Go
Touch And Go
Touch
Go
Touch And Go
Touch And Go
Oh-ohNow it's springtime
On the moving stairway
Time to start again
And I'm wondering vaguely just whose face this isAnd could we ever be friends?
Outside now it's so huge and blue
And the city windows start to glow
And the tides are soft as we're casting offAs the summer starts to show
So while I am the one who waits here
Where I like to play the game of Touch And Go
Let's play at Touch And GoI'm waking up in the moving windows
Going out again to play the game of Touch And Go
'Cause it's all so touch and go
So let's go
