Lemon lyrics

Lemon
See-through in the sunlight
She wore lemon
But never in the daylight
She's gonna make you cry
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
And when you're dry
She draws her water from the stone

And I feel
Like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slipping under
And I feel
Like I'm holding onto nothing

She wore lemon
To colour in the cold grey night
She had heaven
And she held on so tight

A man makes a picture
A moving picture
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close
A man captures colour
A man likes to stare
He turns his money into light
To look for her

And I feel
Like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
And I feel
Like I'm swimming out to her

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

Lemon
See through in the sunlight
A man builds a city
With banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can
See the world outside, you're gonna meet her there
A man makes a car, she's your destination
And builds a road to run them on, you gotta get to her
A man dreams of leaving / She's imagination
But he always stays behind

And these are the days
When our work has come asunder
And these are the days
When we look for something other

Midnight is where the day begins / (Mmm-hi... oh)
Midnight is where the day begins / (Mmm-hi... hey)
Midnight is where the day begins / (Hey, won't you come in?)
Midnight is where the day begins / (Hey, won't you come in?)

Midnight is where the day begins / Midnight... hey there summer love
Midnight is where the day begins / Midnight... sound your pipe there pete
Midnight is where the day begins / Midnight... the day begins in love
Midnight is where the day begins / Midnight... is where the day begins

A man makes a picture
A moving picture
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close
A man captures colour / You're gonna meet her there
A man likes to stare / She's your destination
He turns his money into light / There's no sleeping there
To look for her / She's imagination

She is the dreamer / Lemon
She's imagination / She had heaven
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close / Heaven is tilting
She wore lemon
