Stuart Wilson-Smith - This Was Not the Night As I Intended It Lyrics

I swam alone
But the earth it was ignited at my feet
Enough to keep me floating there in deep
But not discrete

I dragged along
The shores of Fundy coastlands til I was home
The longest time I've been away since grown
So the elm trees groan

In the twilight hours I remember you
While the wild angels sang
We slept out on floors
We opened some door
And went away

In the faint light hours I just figured you
Would be miles back on a train
Where the motion of sound
Would move you around
To another state

Well I came undone
Beholden to time
Hope is a stage
It's never too late

Mornings inside
Weak light collide
How fractured we are
To break on a dime
