Wye Oak – Say Hello lyrics
[Verse 1]
I had to pass through the rain clouds three times
To get home
Tilted left and right
Bounced when it hit the ground below
I heard my ragged breath catch in me
I felt my hollow bones
I saw how little time left in me
I knew how much to know

[Chorus 1]
Five-hundred aerial miles to go
My hair and clothes still smell like smoke
And there is no distance long enough
But still the lengths to which we go
Our achievements
And our houses, yeah
And our promises
And hopes
Five-hundred aerial miles to go

[Verse 2]
How else did I think I would find you
But where all of this begun
Squinting hard at the printed word
By the failing light of the sun
We want our wishes to bow to us
But they have a life of their own
Our world has a solitary eye
But I just want to say hello, hello!

[Chorus 2]
Five-hundred aerial miles to go
The earth turns relative and slow
And there is no distance long enough
But still the lengths to which we go
Our beliefs
And our distractions
Our performances
And codes
Five-hundred aerial miles to go

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
I want to tell the girl next to me
That there is no such thing as truth
It is hard to admit you were all wrong
Accept some things are not for you
