Honey in the Sun - Camera Obscura

A half full moon in Mexico City I think of you

And when I saw the Southern Cross I wished you had too

I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew

But it’s as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you

Oh, I’ve been spending half the year in a plane going up and down

And you’ve been seeing other people from a nearby town

Been obsessing and getting depressed about us

Excess baggage and other stupid band stuff

I wish my heart was cold but it’s warmer than before

I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew

But it’s as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you

When you said the veins in my left hand were shaped like a tree

Was that the very last time you really looked at me?

I’m in training to become as cold as ice

I’m determined to protect my feelings to disguise

And when I said I didn’t love you, I told a lie

Because there is no one above you though I try

Would you laugh at the time I spent calling your name

Over and over and over and over again?

The trouble is I got me close to hating me

And when I wake up in the morning it’s your face I see

Oh, you once made me feel less afraid

You’ve got me pouring myself over this page

I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew

But it’s as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you
