Forgetfullness Lyrics - Steve Kilbey

Paper flowers tacked to the walls 

And cotton sheets back two by two 

Softness where the dreamer storms 

Leaves are crushing up on you 

Different hearts play on these strings 

Strangers waking, talking strange 

Bad nights on the pillow again 

Among the pretty flowers change 

I take forgetfullness 

I'll share some out 

Trust these cards and watch me talk 

A million people call out in gold 

Success and failure feed my heart 

And everything is fine between 

Sundail marks the island time 

And all the dust it makes you swoon 

Come to as you find your mind 

Your memories, details, (you learn these details ? ) much too soon
