White Noise

Superchunk · Cup Of Sand [2003]

Come on, come on, that dirty water should have run this bridge by now

I've been all day leaning on the rail

Looking for a ripple, looking for you on the bow

When your making hand signals

Well, you're frantic to show me

And I decipher okay

But you never did know me

You just knew what to say



And it's white noise and wishes

That held us together, I know

Only a fool even mentions forever, so I

I wish warm weather on your upturned face

We were swimming like fishes

In all kinds of weather, I know

Only a fool even whispers forever, so I

I wish warm weather on your upturned face



Come on, come on, are you still overheated

You lashed out, I think you just needed to show

You could cut me there

And to think that you thought I would lose enough blood to care

Grab this golden ring, it's a halo from me

It's how a set you free

But you're building me a box in your mind

Honey, I tell you it's a waste of pine



And it's white noise and wishes

That held us together, I know

Only a fool even thinks about forever, so I

I wish warm weather on your upturned face

We were swimming like fishes

In all kinds of weather, I know

Only a fool even whispers forever, so I

I wish warm weather on your upturned face
