altar

Fresh white flowers and a new tea light

Nine cups of water, still water

Soon I'll see your face

Don't know why I ever thought you were far away

I should've known better

If I set a flame and I call your name

I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner

We can share a meal your way

And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa

Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before

But now you're closer, closer, whoa

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa

Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before

But now you'rе closer, closer, whoa, whoa

Holdin' on to things you told me

Holdin' on to drеams you showed me

Holdin' on to anything from you

That you've been leaving here

Now I believe I swear

I can smell your perfume

Picking up your signal like a phonebooth

Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to

If I set a flame and I call your name

I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner

We can share a meal your way

And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa

Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before

But now you're closer, closer, whoa (now you're closer)

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, whoa

Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before

But now you're closer, closer, whoa, whoa (closer)
