"ley lines" lyrics

You said "promise me you'll find someone new
To hold and touch you"
I don't want anyone but you

You're giving me an impossible baseline
I know it's gonna take time
Put some new depth in my facelines

But I can't be held on facetime
I hate zoom and I hate to waste time
But waiting for you to call
Is like watching paint dry
Busy in daytimes
The shortest way between us was never a straight line
I thought we could stay high crossing the state lines
I thought it was god talking
I was seeing fake signs
You were seeing ley lines
It's crazy the kinda corroboration the brain finds when you want to believe

I wanted to believe in you and me
Without you all these trinkets and costumes
I've been saving and keeping
They no longer carry any meaning
And you can't wait to tell me your niece and your nephew's new words and phrases
And how you're playing guess who with airport faces

Well I guess I had to be there
And I guess our lives can't be shared
Like they were and life won't be fair
And I realize the shortest way between us was never a straight line
I thought we could stay high
Crossing the state lines
I thought it was god talking
I was seeing fake signs
You were seeing ley lines
It's crazy the kinda corroboration the brain finds
When you want to believe

I wanted to believe in you and me
I wanted to believe in you and me
I wanted to believe
