Willem James Cowan - Apartment Lyrics

Three days from now
I'll be away in Kingston
Hyper-aware of the crowd
And ready to leave in an instant
Three weeks from today
I will be deep in a stupor
A camera-worthy display
The empathy may elude her
Three months from now
I'll be alone when the wind hurts
And the sky is carpeted cloud
I just want to throw on a t-shirt
Six months from today
Wiping snow from the window
Circling over the way
That I hit you with a low blow
Three years from tonight
I won't remember your body
But I will remember your light
Alone in an airport lobby
And I know I was right
'Cause I feel a little bit lighter
But I still dream all the time
That I was more of a fighter
And that I'm still on the fence
And I have you on a tether
And that's where the dream always ends
And I wake up with a tremor
When I'm old and I'm hardened
I may tend to forget
The feeling of our first apartment
Until there's a sudden vignette
