about

Track 3 on Condititon White's new album Running Underwater.

lyrics

Forgive me if my eyes, they linger longer than they ought to
Yours are just so hypnotizing like starlight
I sometimes get the sense that if I broke my gaze too quickly
I might leave part of myself behind

Magic is the imprint you leave on all that you touch,
We mortals stumble from you reeling from the depths you cannot hide
And off you go out spinning spider's silk into fine linen
As if anyone could do it if they tried
Well that's a lie

And you float across the floor
Lashes like the breeze
Voice like lilac wine

Oh, girl to see you comin's like the parting of the ocean
As if Moses was a pale-skinned goddess clad in flowing summer dresses
Heads go turning, whispers follow, swelling in your wake
Like the crickets singing to the fireflies
Well that's no lie

And you float across the floor
Lashes like the breeze
Voice like lilac wine

I see you when I stand in silence, fold my arms and slowly close my eyes
But I dare not submit the depths of my obsession 'til I make you mine
I'm just waiting for a sign

So forgive me for my lingering, I have no business more than wondering
If I caught your eye some blessed night or day
I hate to press the issue but just tell it to me truly
And I'll be along my lovestruck foolish way
I'll be fine

And you float across the floor, lashes like the breeze,
Glowing like the shore from far out on the sea
Eyes like burning coals, lips parted to speak
Voice like lilac wine
