White Noise Songtext

von Superchunk

Come on, come on, that dirty water should have run this bridge by now
I've been all day leaning on the rail
Looking for a ripple, looking for you on the bow
When your making hand signals
Well, you're frantic to show me
And I decipher okay
But you never did know me
You just knew what to say

And it's white noise and wishes
That held us together, I know
Only a fool even mentions forever, so I
I wish warm weather on your upturned face
We were swimming like fishes
In all kinds of weather, I know
Only a fool even whispers forever, so I
I wish warm weather on your upturned face

Come on, come on, are you still overheated
You lashed out, I think you just needed to show
You could cut me there
And to think that you thought I would lose enough blood to care
Grab this golden ring, it's a halo from me
It's how a set you free
But you're building me a box in your mind
Honey, I tell you it's a waste of pine

And it's white noise and wishes
That held us together, I know
Only a fool even thinks about forever, so I
I wish warm weather on your upturned face
We were swimming like fishes
In all kinds of weather, I know
Only a fool even whispers forever, so I
I wish warm weather on your upturned face
