The Proposal Songtext
von Jack Savoretti

Living in your absence
I see memories of when I cry
I hear songs in the key of silence
I′m not ready yet to die

Every breath I laugh out loud
Like a poem with no rhyme
It means nothing to me now
It'll mean everything in time

Oh this crazy superstition
You′ll find love, just you wait your turn
I ain't got no time for intuition
Let's build this bridge together
Watch it burn

Looking back at my sweet life
In an empty dirty glass
I can see the man I was
Telling tales about the past


Such a dangerous game to play
The only way to be
Ask me nicely I might say
Will you you run away with me

Oh this crazy superstition
You′ll find love, just you wait your turn
I ain′t got no time for intuition
Let's build this bridge together
Watch it burn

Living in your absence
I see memories of when I cry
I hear songs in the key of silence
I′m not ready yet to die

Oh this crazy superstition
You'll find love, just you wait your turn
I ain′t got no time for intuition
Let's build this bridge together
Watch it burn

Let′s build this bridge together
Watch it burn
Let's build this bridge together
Watch it burn
