Lyrics
I met you in the afternoon light
losing control, stepping out
please don't say the timing's not right
you were only a newborn, you were 10 feet tall
and the light fell in a fantastic field
each particle was another thing you'd feel
don't leave us on the backburner
all the things you had, should they wither up
there's a little here there's a little there
there's a little everywhere
when it all rolls home, when it all rolls home to you now
and the light fell in a fantastic field
each particle was another thing you'd feel
like dissonance, decay
and all the things you thought you had to say
they'll drown inside the afternoon light
and the light fell in a fantastic field
each particle was another thing you'd feel
like dissonance, decay
and all the things you thought you had to say
they'll drown inside the afternoon light
back in 94, you were 10 feet tall
don't leave us on the backburner
all the things you had
should they wither up
there's a little here there's a little there
there's a little everywhere
it'll all roll home, it'll all roll home to you now
you're my sisters, you're my sisters
you're my sisters, you're my sisters
I'll meet you in the afternoon light
