lyrics
what's my worth
if my words don't work
cant get the meaning to hold
what's the point
if my words don't mean
what they're supposed to mean
I'm looking at you
wishing I knew how to say
what I wanted to say
what I wanted to say to you
but my words don't work
I chew on my consonants
the words stick on my tongue
barely fumble past my lips
and then hang in the air
fall like dead weight
I'm looking at you
wishing I knew how to say
what I wanted to say
what I wanted to say to you
but my words don't work
if my words don't work
cant get the meaning to hold
what's the point
if my words don't mean
what they're supposed to mean
I'm looking at you
wishing I knew how to say
what I wanted to say
what I wanted to say to you
but my words don't work
I chew on my consonants
the words stick on my tongue
barely fumble past my lips
and then hang in the air
fall like dead weight
I'm looking at you
wishing I knew how to say
what I wanted to say
what I wanted to say to you
but my words don't work

I did not know what I was in for when I first heard this song, but it spoke to my soul in a way very few songs do on a first listen. It's only grown on me since then.

One of the more peaceful and beautiful albums in my collection for chillout moments. I'd love to hear more cello duets like 'Adrift' from you in the future.
