Futile Devices (Acoustic) by Sufjan Stevens
It's been a long, long time
Since I've memorized (1)________ face
It's been four (2)__________ now
Since I've wandered (3)______________ your place
And when I sleep on your couch
I feel very safe
And when you bring the blankets
I cover up my face
I do
Love you
I do...
Love you
And (4)________ you play guitar
I (5)____________ to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And when 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 (6)________ (7)________ long
But you are life I (8)____________ all along
I think of you as my brother
Although (9)________ sounds dumb
And words are futile devices
Since I've memorized (1)________ face
It's been four (2)__________ now
Since I've wandered (3)______________ your place
And when I sleep on your couch
I feel very safe
And when you bring the blankets
I cover up my face
I do
Love you
I do...
Love you
And (4)________ you play guitar
I (5)____________ to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And when 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 (6)________ (7)________ long
But you are life I (8)____________ all along
I think of you as my brother
Although (9)________ sounds dumb
And words are futile devices
