One And A Half Times

from Halflight by The Phosphenes

/

lyrics

Once, long ago, you said you loved me one-and-a-half times. Back then I did not believe you: couldn’t make sense of your rhymes. Talk to me, I like hearing from you, baby – one-and-a-half times – say something, even if it’s nothing but another one of your lines. Add it up! It comes to nothing. Two, three, four times; multiply, divide by nothing, every time we say goodbye.
First, in a bar we saw each other one-and-a-half times. I knew then you’d be my lover, one-and-a-half times. You used to make me melt like ice cream in the setting sun. Won’t somebody wake me from this daydream? Might you be the one? Add it up! It comes to nothing. Two, three, four times; multiply, divide by nothing, every time we say goodbye.
Tried to find a reason for leaving; they all said to stay. Went separate ways for many days, your friends might say it was just a phase. Were you gonna leave me tomorrow? Was it gonna be today? Add it up! It comes to nothing. Two, three, four times; multiply, divide by nothing, every time we say goodbye.
When we made love it used to feel like one-and-a-half times; when I was down, you’d say “it’s alright” one-and-a-half times. In the night time – through the darkness – I can still see the sun shine.
