Version Of The Future Lyrics - Smoke Fairies

SOMEWHERE IN YOUR BUILDING A PHONE CUTS THE NIGHT 

NO WAY OF KNOWING WHO'S ON THE LINE 

YOU DON'T WAKE, I WONDER HOW I GOT HERE 

TRY TO REMEMBER WHERE I WAS THIS TIME LAST YEAR 

AND FOR MINUTES I LAY LISTENING 

WONDERING WHAT NEWS ITS SONG'S HERALDING 

IS THERE SOMETHING OF WORTH I HAVE YET TO DISCOVER? 

THE RINGING CONTINUES COULD IT BE YOUR LAST LOVER? 

THERE'S A VERSION OF THE FUTURE HANGING CLOSE ABOVE MY HEAD 

BUT I CAN'T GET TO IT 

SEARCH AROUND THE ROOM TO BUILD THE PIECES OF A LIFE 

BUT I CAN'T MAKE THEM FIT 

THE DARKNESS LIFTS AND I THINK OF THE DOOR 

I THINK I LIKE YOU BUT I'M NEVER THAT SURE 

ONE DAY WILL YOU CALL ME WHEN I'M HALF ASLEEP 

DIALING A NUMBER THAT'S INCOMPLETE? 

THERE'S A VERSION OF THE FUTURE HANGING CLOSE ABOVE MY HEAD 

BUT I CAN'T GET TO IT 

SEARCH AROUND THE ROOM TO BUILD THE PIECES OF A LIFE 

BUT I CAN'T MAKE THEM FIT 

IN THE DARK I FEEL ALONE 

'TILL THE SUN COMES UP ITS POLITE TO GO HOME 

IF I BACK OUT OF THIS TOO SOON 

WILL I BE LEFT HOLDING TORCHES FOR YOU? 

WE MIGHT NOT KNOW EACH OTHER IN A WEEK 

BECOME WEIRD NUMBERS WE DIAL IN OUR SLEEP 

LISTENING TO EMPTY DIAL TONES 

LEFT WITH SLEEPLESS NIGHTS ALONE 

THERE'S A VERSION OF THE FUTURE HANGING CLOSE ABOVE MY HEAD 

BUT I CAN'T GET TO IT 

SEARCH AROUND THE ROOM TO BUILD THE PIECES OF A LIFE 

BUT I CAN'T MAKE THEM FIT 

IN THE DARK I FEEL ALONE 

'TILL THE SUN COMES UP ITS POLITE TO GO HOME 

IF I BACK OUT OF THIS TOO SOON 

WILL I BE LEFT HOLDING TORCHES FOR YOU?
