Age

from NOVEM by Finn M-K

lyrics

Age is a desert
Soil turns to glass
Time is an anchor
Sinking in the past

From the milky whites
Of your eyes
Who do you see?

Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me

I've heard this story
A hundred times before
Still, there's a magic
If a little tragic
In the words
Just when I think I know you full
A wink and a quip and I'm rocked
The laughter that follows is beautifully sad
It reminds me of what I'll have lost

From the milky whites
Of your eyes
Who do you see?

Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?

I fear I'll become you
Slip away, slip away
Remember my virtues
Before they're hid under the grey

Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?

When our time is up
All we can do is love
When your life is done
I hope you leave with love
