Detroit Waves Lyrics - Some Mad Hope - Matt Nathanson

So, we let it go to start again 

Knowing now how all our best intensions 

Never lit the world on fire 

Lights, illuminate the exit signs 

And over the wings the skies an open endless sea 

Crowding up surrounding me 

And all, Detroit waves 

Goodnight 

Spread out 

Beneath 

Me now 

If I could, if I could change 

Believe me 

I would, I would for you 

(my love)

And when, you're warm enough to share your sheets 

Cold enough to make it seem that I was only there long enough to disappear 

You know I'll still, say your name to fall asleep 

Over and over a cynic saying rosary 

A liar living make believe 

And all, of Detroit waves 

Goodnight 

Spread out 

Beneath 

Me now 

If I could, if I could change 

Believe me 

I would, yes I would 

And Detroit waves 

Photos 

And Detroit waves, goodnight 

Spread out 

Beneath me now 

If I could 

If I could change 

Believe me 

I would 

Yes I would 

And Detroit Waves
