Three Spoons Make Three

notice

i’m singing a lullaby under a streetlight
i am blinded by your kindness
hey maria, let me be nice to you

i don’t need you to notice
hey hey hey
i don’t need you to notice me

i wither without her
where i lay
there’s a baby that’s crying
and a mother that prays

chorus

last night there was a fire
i didn’t know her so well
she got caught up in the smoke
she never made it out

chorus
(and neither did may)

and oh may
well that’s a hell of a way to go, my friend
and i will hold you until the end of it
we will cross that street to a river i want to show you
and it runs so deep
just like the river that runs inside of you
and i know you been thirsty
i know you been lonely
i know you been bursting
with everything inside
well you can let it out slowly
and you are right on time
and i am right on time
like a river inside
there’s a river outside
river inside
river outside
etc.
