Beach House - The Traveller

When I come home
You're just lying there
Face against the wall
Never had a care

I am just a traveller
There's no light in this room
And the body's aching at night
Would I be acting up
If I said it's not enough

Who knows who else who is with
No one is with the traveller
There's a light in my eyes
And a future invisible now

Heard it's your birthday
Candles in a row
Better blow them quick before
They're melting on the floor

You were never a traveller
There's no light in your room
And the bodies don't ache in the night
Would I be acting up
If I said not that much

Who else would do
Anything for the traveller
There's a light in her eyes
And a future visible touch

I was looking out
Of the window at the sky
Starless vigil
Of a life that has gone by

Saturn turning and I feel
There's not much more
For a vision of the night
Turn off your light
