Adrianne Lenker – Already Lost Lyrics

Already Lost Lyrics by Adrianne Lenker

Already lost beside the line
The mirror is your eye on mine
The mirror is your eye on mine

Trying hard to figure it out of here
The center is a hole in the sphere
The center is a hole in the sphere

Say your name, I hope to get it right
You come into my room every night
You come into my room every night

A thousand years or more
And I’ve never seen this face
Never heard this voice before

The honey hills and the frosted sun
Bluer than the ocean
Bluer than the ocean

Why do leaves turn yellow and fall?
And who absorbs it all?
Who absorbs it all?

Holding so near, standing so far
How slow and how fast you are
How slow and how fast you are

A thousand years or more
And I’ve never seen this face
Never heard this voice before

Though my love is riding blind
It can always read my mind
It can always read my mind

Shadows shatter at the edges of a smile
We’ve been down here for a while
We’ve been down here

A thousand years or more
And I’ve never seen this face
Never heard this voice before
