The Reinvention of Simple Math Lyrics

It's hard to recover from
When it's hard to define
I know what you're looking for
Some peace of mind
The soft touch of rain washed away the champagne and you learn
It's gonna take more than those words you adore to return

Knocking on doors in the night in the parts where you're always too far
We drank to life and to love, both had long left the bar
Oh the speed of strangers rustling by so fast
Faceless and nameless they disappear into the past

The soft touch of rain washed away the champagne and you learn
It's gonna take more than those words you adore to return
It seems that there are too many four letter words
It's mildly confusing like naming all birds
The flesh of these ladies so ripe and so fine
You wish you could erase the female shape from your mind

The soft touch of rain washed away the champagne and you learn
It's gonna take more than those words you adore to return
I wish you'd stop whispering things, please stop whispering things now
Opportunity might knock quite soft but I wish you would shout
I know what can happen to you in those dimly lit rooms, you can die
You thought of the people you knew when you were young are they still alive, still alive, still alive?

The soft touch of rain washed away the champagne and you learn
It's gonna take more than those words you adore to return

The soft touch of rain washed away the champagne and you learn
It's gonna take more than those words you adore to return
