I got to keep moving to stay 'cause I'm freezing in this room And if I prove no good here I'll skip to where I should It's only an imaginary vigil we keep You salvage what you need I'll take the love you leave I love your way I can't explain What made me change I'm wading in deeper ever deeper as I go I drown the whole idea as I drift away from you It's only an imaginary vigil we keep You salvage what you need I'll take the love you leave I love your way I can't explain what made me change I love your way And as the memory gathers dust, buried in its crust Are the remains of what we've done and the seed of what we've just begun The tapping of the rain beats a corrugated drum And the city glows well it pulses on 1(to the city hum)/2(Until the day is done) (x2) I love your way I can't explain what made me change
