[Intro]
   

[Verse 1]
         
Earth went sil

   
ent,  London f

ell asleep
         
She dreamed of

              
 winter where 


you appeared t

o me
         
Perfect timing

        
 as new petals

     
 in November
        
A tender creat

              
ure, a fever, 

  
disarming, flu

orescent

[Chorus]
             
There you were

            
 with your mir

ror
             
Shining the wo

        
rld all over m

e
            
There I was wi

   
th my butterfl

y net
            
Trying to catc

        
h your light

   
   

[Verse 2]
             
I collected st

     
upid ashes
            
so that after 

              
you'd gone I c

     
ould hold onto

 something
            
But you stayed

              
 unwavering th

      
rough every fa

lse goodbye
            
  Unsubsiding,

       
 pining,     f

or now and for

 never

[Chorus]
             
There you were

            
 with your mir

ror
             
Shining the wo

        
rld all over m

e
            
There I was wi

   
th my butterfl

y net
            
Trying to catc

        
h your light


[Bridge]
            
   Oh if only 

             
  the umbrella

         
 of the sky
              
Could wrap us 


up and up
              
That's where I

            
'd zoom in clo

             
se, dilated as

      
 your eyes
              
But til then I

     
'll keep it br

ief

[Verse 3]
N.C.
Faithful inertia, her bullet doesn't slow
N.C.
It seeks and finds me how far it goes, heaven help me
            
Take this bag 

              
of wings and d


rown it in the

 thames
           
And wake tomor

           
row, hollow, h

ardly forgetti

ng

[Chorus]
             
There you were

   
            
There I was wi

   
th my butterfl

y net
            
Trying to catc

        
h your light
