Letter To Elise Lyrics - Living Outside - Sense Field

Oh, Elise, it doesn't matter what you say 

Just can't stay here every yesterday 

Like keep on acting out the same, the way we act out 

Every wait is smile, forget 

And make believe we never need it anymore than this 

Anymore than this 

Oh, Elise, it doesn't matter what you do 

No, I'll never really get inside of you 

To make your eyes catch fire the way they should 

The way their blue could pull me in 

If they only would, if they only would 

At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else that hides away 

For me and you, they're worlds apart 

With taking looks and breaking hearts 

And all the prayers your hands could make 

Why just take as much as you can throw 

No, I throw it all away 

Oh, I throw it all away 

Like throwing faces at the sky, like throwing it all down 

Yesterday I couldn't stand my eyes in front of you 

And the face I saw looked like the way I want it to 

But I just can't hold my tears away the way you do 

Elise believe I never wanted to 

I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises 

I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about 

But I let the dream go, and the promises broke 

And the make believe ran out 

So Elise, it doesn't matter what you say 

Just can't stay here every yesterday 

Like keep on acting out the same the way we act out 

Every wait is smile, forget 

And make believe, we never need it anymore than this 

Anymore than this 

Every time I tried to pick you up like falling sand 

I start as I pick it up, it runs away through my clutching hands 

There's nothing else I can really do, there's nothing else I can really do 

There's nothing else I can really do at all
