HIGHTIDE HOTEL LYRICS

"Closer"

In morning's first light on still folded sheets
After the sorriest excuse for a good night's sleep
We laid for hours that stretched into weeks
And after each pause, we traded thoughts and you'd softly speak
And it was faint, but I still made it out
All my own doubts falling out of another person's mouth

Oh, what a voice, oh, what a voice
How I did rejoice

In your parents' house, in your childhood bed
I watched the rise and fall of your ribcage with every breath
Making a makeshift space for me to rest my heavy head
And in that place, in those quiet days, I could hear it best
And I was calm, somehow while so distressed
When I heard my own heart beating in another person's chest

Oh, what a sound, oh, what a sound
Oh, I felt so found

And it resonates
Rolls 'round my skull and all around and throughout my brain
And I squirm, I twist and shake
As it courses its way through each and every vein
And it reverberates throughout my vertebrae
Oh, what a sound, oh, how I did shake
Almost restoring my long lost and fleeting faith in fate

I gave our love a sound
I passed the word around
