il vecchio albero di loto
by John Bruce
Lyrics
Verse 1
You came in blank
Like a page with a pulse
I read your face
And it read me back
Pocket of gold
In a box of gray
You say "lorem ipsum"
And I lean in anyway
Pre-Chorus
Hold that line
Don't let it fade
I can hear the shape
Before the words get made
Chorus
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, pull me in
Empty ink, full of fire
You start the spark in my quiet
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, over and over
Blank at first
Then it hits like thunder
Verse 2
Coffee ring stain
On the edge of your note
Little torn corners
And a crooked little quote
You move like a dare
In a room of glass
I don't need the answer
I just want it fast
Pre-Chorus
Hold that line
Don't let it fade
I can hear the shape
Before the words get made
Chorus
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, pull me in
Empty ink, full of fire
You start the spark in my quiet
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, over and over
Blank at first
Then it hits like thunder
Bridge
Half-time
If it starts as nothing
Let it come alive
If it starts as a fragment
We can make it drive
One small phrase
Turning into more
You were just a door
Now you're a whole front door
Chorus
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, pull me in
Empty ink, full of fire
You start the spark in my quiet
Lorem ipsum, say it again
Lorem ipsum, over and over
Blank at first
Then it hits like thunder
