You couldn't make our wedding day
 Too sick to travel
 You fell between a friend
 And a father
 I owe you dinner, man
 I owe you something
 You talk to me
 Like I was inside
 We were just waking up
 For a hard
 Interrupt
 I meant to get to you
 On the turning
 Things sneak up on me
 Like a landslide comes
 Been saving email trails
 Kept together
 I read them back sometimes
 To remember
 The time I wrote to you
 From the island
 Your quick replies
 Made me hide
 That I had fear in the room
 So I stopped turning up
 My hands kept pushing down
 In my pockets
 I'm bad with people things
 But I should have tried more
 Been watching images
 From the station
 Earth one from satellites
 All streaming
 Feels slow at seventeen thousand miles an hour
 You could be anywhere
 On the black screen
 On the black screen
 On the black screen
 On the black screen
 On the black screen
 You could be anywhere
 On the black screen
