Said the Whale — Oh K, Okay lyrics

Lyrics

I laid a kiss upon your forehead that night
We laid awake and you wondered why I’d said
«I'd never felt a kiss quite like this before»
You said «a kiss is a kiss»
But it was never like this before
Oh K, oh K, oh K I laid my head upon your chest in the dark
You said to me that if it’s only a spark
that can grow to be the nucleus of flame
Well than a flicker in the dark
will start a good fire all the same
Oh K, oh K, oh K
I’d never met a girl who thinks the way that I do About the better things
Like the reflection of the moon
Or the mortality of fire
And the distance of a star and us Oh K, oh K, oh K I lay my thoughts upon you in the dark
I lay beside you and listen to your heart beat
Rippling the water on the lake and the stars
Night sky, bright sparks
Oh K, oh K, oh K
I’d never met a girl who thinks the way that I do About the better things
And the reflection of the moon
Or the anatomy of fire
Or the distance of a star and us We’ll never be alone
As long as we survive
Separated by the miles
Far across the land
And on a distant shore there’s us Oh K, oh K, oh K
