look after me and I'll look after you
that's something we both forgot to do
x2

I find it hard to see your face day to day
and I remember it well enough
or in the details such that I see it in my head
when I am with you it's familiar and beautiful
and I love it as I love you
as night comes in I know it better but see it less clear again

look after me and i'll look after you
that's something we both forgot to do
x2

as if I'm squinting I see you are so far from me, far from me
as if by miracle I see a room, i see us three
with words and music these images
they come back to me, back to me
crystal clear in my head but it's behind the screen

look after me and I'll look after you
that's something we both forgot to do
x4

every time I see your face I break down and cry
I see it in your family as they walk on by

come back to me and I'll come back to you
that's something we both will always do

come back to me and I'll come back to you
that's something we both can now not do
