Permanent Way - Charlie Cunningham

One light fades

Let another shine in its place

It’s just the moving of colours

My hands don’t play the same

But they’ll try anyway

Each accusing the other

You can do what you want

But I’m making my own way in

Either you will or you won’t

You’ll only know, if you count yourself in

If daylight breaks

And you’re still miles away

You should move into cover

I’ll try stay in a more permanent way

Can we keep to each other?

Where you been all this time?

Would you give one more day if you’re able, I’ve wondered

Before they clear one more place at the table, I’ve wondered

A penny for your thoughts

So many fall before they reach the shore

If daylight breaks

And you’re still miles away

You should move into cover

I’ll try stay in a more permanent way

Can we keep to each other?

You can do what you want

But I’m making my own way in
