"Patient Hope In New Snow" lyrics - BRIGHT EYES

[Intro:]
All right. All right

The heat comes in distant shifts
To fill up my room
It spills out of these ancient vents
To meet the new cold
And I lay in my twisted sheets
And stare out at the snow
Thinking of the next few months
My cold and lifeless eyes

[Chorus:]
No
I've never felt so separate
And then there's you
But that's so obvious
I just said it
It's hopeless and I know this
That's why I can't dream
No desire or circumstance
Keeps it from me
Keeps it from me
Keeps it
Keeps

One by one, to department stores
We walk through the aisles
In a forest of designer clothes
You touch me and smile
And oh, for a moment
I could want nothing
Your bright eyes burn through
My exploding heart

[Chorus 2:]
So we stand
As the shoppers pass us
And for once
(And for once)
I can feel a touch complete
(I can feel)
And I need to just be near you
And fill these empty eyes
You start turning as resistance pulls you
From my cold and boring life
We'll make it easy
Let time pass as devotion dies
The list goes on and on
I have waited and I will be waiting for time to cure the fear

[Outro:]
To cure the fear
