Letra de Asphalt Meadows (Acoustic)
Your kiss was a lonely prayer When you slipped it into my mouth I closed my eyes and held it in And then I exhaled it out The glow of the downtown lights Casting shadows across your face As if all the buildings knew I could only know half of youAnd I was a snake under your flowers I just wanted to disappear Into the understory of your beauty Never to reappear But there's a name writ on your cast Above the bruised and broken bones It tells everybody that you meet To whom the damage is owedWе rode a wave of white noisе Beneath the city sleeping I saw the train doors closing I felt your sorrow deepen Here in the asphalt meadows There's only one thing that grows Finding the light through the concrete Getting trampled under our feetYou said all your bridges and roads They all lead to an airport Planes drifting off into the sky Always depart, but never seem to arrive And there in the early hour Lying naked in your unmade bed I was thinking of how to tell you What my ticket readYour kiss was a lonely prayer A single candle, slowly burning down But the light, your light was beautiful Within its here and nowWe rode a wave of white noise Beneath the city sleeping I saw the train doors closing I felt your sorrow deepen Here in the asphalt meadows There's only one thing that grows Finding the light through the concrete Getting trampled under our feetWe rode a wave of white noise Beneath the city sleeping I saw the train doors closing I felt your sorrow deepen Here in the asphalt meadows There's only one thing that grows Finding the light through the concrete Getting trampled under our feet Getting trampled under our feet Getting trampled under our feet Getting trampled under our feet
