Build Us Airplanes - Old Sparks Lyrics

Old sparks fly in front of my eyes with a flash that blinds
I can't see you and i can't see why i stay
She has explained, it's like she's running against the wind
But while you're pushing i'm blowing away

You get more distant, i get confused, i leave it up to you
You wanted inches now you have miles
In separate rooms i think of you, going, going, going, going gone
This feeling spans for miles

We'll say goodbye, hell it's as easy as a flick of the light
But i cant see you and i can't see why, things change
We both made presumptions but i don't presume
That you are gonna stay

You get more distant, i get confused, i leave it up to you
You wanted inches now you have miles
And i could string myself along, patiently wait by the phone
Hoping that your name pops up but i'm to old to be a backup

So i'll wait to see if there's a change
