Lyrics

[Verse 1] Can I call you sometime, talk it out on the phone? We don't have to be lovers, we could be less alone It's a rough, rocky road and it's gonna get steep I just wanted your soft tone to allow me to sleep [Chorus] And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel You're just a person And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind A soft summer unwinds [Verse 2] I just want you to know, all your problems are mine I will breathe them like fire smoke, I will make us divine Underneath your thin skin, we are prophets on hold Elеmental disciples waiting for our time to unfold [Chorus] And I somеtimes confuse you for God or angel You're just a person And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind A soft summer unwinds [Bridge] And I dreamt about you breathing, we're all in thrall to the past And I dreamt about you leaving, living in the same house You kiss awkward, lips dried and closed He was the first one you cared for, it lasted for years And I close my eyes to see you again And I close my eyes to see you again [Chorus] And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel You're just a person And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind A soft summer unwinds And I sometimes confuse you for God or angel You're just a person And I'm sometimes confused, I got glory in my mind
