Futile Devices (Acoustic) by Sufjan Stevens
It's been a long, long time
Since I've memorized your face
It's been four hours now
Since I've wandered through your place
And (1)________ I (2)__________ on your couch
I feel (3)________ safe
And when you bring the blankets
I (4)__________ up my face
I do
Love you
I do...
Love you
And when you play guitar
I listen to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And (5)________ you crochet
I feel mesmerized and proud
And I would say I love you
But saying it out loud is hard
So I won't say it at all
And I won't stay (6)________ long
But you are (7)________ I needed all along
I think of you as my brother
Although (8)________ sounds dumb
And words are futile devices
Since I've memorized your face
It's been four hours now
Since I've wandered through your place
And (1)________ I (2)__________ on your couch
I feel (3)________ safe
And when you bring the blankets
I (4)__________ up my face
I do
Love you
I do...
Love you
And when you play guitar
I listen to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And (5)________ you crochet
I feel mesmerized and proud
And I would say I love you
But saying it out loud is hard
So I won't say it at all
And I won't stay (6)________ long
But you are (7)________ I needed all along
I think of you as my brother
Although (8)________ sounds dumb
And words are futile devices
