Does he kiss your eyelids in the morning when you start to raise your head?

And does he sing to you incessantly from the space between your bed and wall?

Does he walk around all day at school with his feet inside your shoes?

Looking down every few steps to pretend he walks with you.

Oh does he know that place below your neck that is your favorite to be touched,

and does he cry through broken sentences that I love you far too much?

Does he lay awake listening to your breath?

Worried you smoke too many cigarettes.

Is he coughing now, on a bathroom floor?

For every speck of tile there's a thousand more,

you won't ever see.

but you must hold inside yourself eternally.

Well I drug your ghost across the country and we plotted out my death.

In every city, memories would whisper, Here is where you rest.

I was determined in Chicago but I dug my teeth into my knees,

and I settled for a telephone and sang into your machine.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.

And I kissed a girl with a broken jaw that her father gave to her.

She had eyes bright enough to burn me. They reminded me of yours.

And In a story told she was a little girl in a red-rouge, sun-bruised field

and there were rows of ripe tomatoes where a secret was concealed.

And it rose like thunder, clapped under our hands.

And it stretched for centuries to a diary entry's end

where I wrote,

You make me happy

oh when skies are gray.

You make me happy oh when skies are gray, and gray, and gray.

Well the clock's heart it hangs inside its open chest

with its hands stretched towards the calendar hanging itself

but I will not weep for those dying days.

For all the ones who've left there's a few that stayed.

And they found me here and pulled me from the grass where I was laid.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Conor's voice is like a cool soothing liquid down a dry cracking throat and his music. like a best friend, has helped me through so many hard times but been there to make the best even better.
