Koto Songtext

von Smoke Fairies

Our Bodies weren't touching
On the outskirts of town
Seaside off season
With the fairground shut down

I heard the waves crashing
Lined up tales to recount
So we could build up a picture
Figure each other out

At night by the water
Looking over at you
Impossibly tempting
You're too good to be true

The drunken kids staring
From the end of the park
I wish we could have done more
I wanted your heart

He doesn't change his mind He doesn't change his mind
He doesn't change his mind He doesn't change his mind

The pier in the distance
Flags blow round and round
Roller coasters are covered
Shake your clothes to the ground

I fight the components
Of the life that I led
I showed you where I was going
Somewhere you wouldn't dare tread

Shut this door so you can open one more
I'm still inside
Twisting the lock
And this isn't real

He doesn't change his mind He doesn't change his mind
He doesn't change his mind He doesn't change his mind

I follow your sand prints
Eye you up and down
Seaside off season
No one around

Reality wins out in the end
I
Will
Not
See you again
