keep missing you

I aim so long that I'm too late to shoot
I pull so strong, the arrow can't fly true
try to follow along but can't see where it flew
I might be wrong, but I'll keep missing you
woke up so late, I couldn't make the train
I found the gate but couldn't find the plane
you know I hate the bus, but it'll do
I'll sit and wait but I'll keep missing you
I sing so loud that I can't hit a note
I wonder, how d'you like the words I wrote?
it's not a crowd, but I can play for two
(if I'm allowed), and I'll keep missing you
if I'm allowed, then I'll keep missing you

led out into the world in reins
another January blue
the veils that hide you from your face
rearrange their shape on you
didn't sleep this Sunday night
was nearly rolled from bed by waves
haunted by my own "that's nice"
clutch the air to feel the bass
I don't know how I'll sleep without you
I tried not to doubt you
now I see it was in vain
still, I'd do it all again
brought in trembling on my back
realigned at 5:05
you leave the broken nest at last
the need to fall keeps all alive
lashing out, St. Peter shrinks
tugged back from the edge of a dream
Helen, bound by her own rings
crosses oceans to be free
I don't know how I'll sleep without you
I tried not to doubt you
now I see it was in vain
still, I'd do it all again
this'll be the last one about you
broke my back not to doubt you
now I see it was in vain
still, I'd do it all again

you're never gone
you're always with me
I'm humming your song
the one that you kissed me to
under the hazy moon
it's hard to see it through
the breath all escaping
you turn me on
you've always got it
we ramble along
with my hand in the pocket of
your coat, I've got your glove
on, and it's warm, your love
is all I am holding
throw open the window
the cold air blows your hair
my shoes and your coffee
your photos on top of me
our intertangled feet
thanksgiving oh so sweet
you made my heart soft
thought it had hardened
and we're taking off
over the garden wall
I never thought I'd fall
so hard I'd give it all
up but it happened

I'll fake it through the day with some help
from Johnny Walker Red
and the cold pain behind my eyes
that shoots back through my head
with two tickets torn in half
and a lot of nothing to do
but it's alright, cause some enchanted night
I'll be with you
tarot cards and the lines in my hand
tell me I'm wrong, but they're untrue
I got plans for both of us
that involve a trip out of town
to a place I seen in a magazine
that you left lying around
I can't hold my liquor
but I keep a good attitude
cause it's alright, some enchanted night
I'll be with you
and though you'd rather see me gone
than to see there come a day
I'll be waiting for you anyway
nextdoor, the TV's flashing
blue frames on the wall
it's a comedy from the seventies
with a lead no one recalls
he vanished into oblivion
it's easy to do
and I cried a sea when you talked to me
the day you said we were through
but it's alright, some enchanted night
I'll be with you

when I was young, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
and now I'm older, see it face to face
and now I'm older, gotta get up, clean the place
and I was green, greener than the hill
where flowers grew and the sun shone still
now I'm darker than the deepest sea
just hand me down, give me a place to be
and I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I'd see when day was done
now I'm weaker than the palest blue
oh so weak in this need for you

lean out of the window
goldenhair
I hear you singing
a merry air
my book was closed
I read no more
watching the fire dance
on the floor
I've left my book
I've left my room
for I heard you singing
through the gloom
singing and singing
a merry air
lean out of the window
goldenhair

I love how your eyes close
whenever you kiss me
and when I'm away from you
I love how you miss me
I love the way
you always treat me tenderly
but, darling, most of all
I love how you love me
I love how your heart beats
whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me
without being told to
I love the way
your touch is always heavenly
but, darling, most of all
I love how you love me

Kind of taps into the non-electronic Radiohead thing. A much more satisfying album than King of Limbs.
