"HEADPHONES" lyrics

Walking with your headphones on
It's a game of half chance
Standing in the half light
One day this will all be gone
There might be a road here
Candles on the table
Pink flamingos overhead
You know there is a path
That goes towards the ocean

I'll wait for the next wave to come in
(Ba da ba da dum)
You'll write my name on your skin
(Ba da ba da dum)
Before we leave town
(Ba da ba da dum...)

When you wake what do you do
Walk into the garden
Stand there in the sunlight
Close your eyes it's anywhere
All that old sorrow
Shatters the tsunami

I'll wait for the next wave to come in
(Ooh...)
You'll write my name on your skin
(Ooh...)
Before we leave town

Years ago I was walking in the snow
(Ooh...)
Towards a light in the distance
And you were there
(Ooh...)
And you were there
Years ago I was walking in the snow
(Ooh...)
Towards a light in the distance
And you were there
(Ooh...)
Waiting for me
Years ago I was walking in the snow
(Ooh...)
Towards a light in the distance
And you were there
(Ooh...)
Waiting for me
(Ooh...)
Years ago I was walking in the snow
(Ooh...)
Towards a light in the distance
And you were there
(Ooh...)

Walking with your headphones on
It's a game of half chance
Standing in the half light
