Flicker
Anna-Lynn Williams
When you know it's the last dance
When you'd catch up but you can't
In this circle where I stay
You at just a reach away and
When it tries to flicker back
Try to break it, try to laugh
Oh and I'll never be sure
You say, there's nothing we could've done
Oh and this is mine, my way
The one waving at the train
Even long after I know
That it's moved too far away
And when you walk, you walk so fast
Couldn't you have just held back
Your eyes don't grab the way mine do
A last time to look at you
Oh and this is mine, my piece
So sad for clinging to
What if I forget your face
I couldn't even dream of you
Oh and this is mine, my way
The one waving at the train
Even long after I know
That it's moved too far away
