Planet With Water Lyrics by Charlie Hickey
She smokes a little, just to get to sleep
She always drinks only half of her tea
Cups are collecting on the bedside table
Watching love island
While the drunk drivers are burning their rubber
On East Johnson street
Throats full of exhaust
It was then that I thought I could stay here forever
If I didn’t know better
Ruby said I should ever since I met her
Press my thumbs into my eyes
See you in constellations of particles of light
You’re a planet with water
I’m never gonna find another one
Not in our lifetime
It makes me nervous when you think before speaking
Why don’t you start talking? We’ll rewind if we need to
Do you feel protective of my little feelings?
Does it feel aggressive to say what you’re thinking?
Talk about the future like a bedtime story
You’ll come here for school, I’ll stay home waiting for you
All holed up in our apartment
Sitting on a magic carpet
I hear your footsteps and the neighbor’s TV through the wall
You make me feel like I could fly
Into a constellation of particles of light
You’re a planet with water
I’m never gonna find another place
Where my love could survive
You’re a planet with water
I’m never gonna find another one
Not in my lifetime
