Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] You left a lemon on the windowsill With a blue thread tied around its stem By noon the kitchen had turned upside down And every cup was looking back again [Chorus] Turn the room around, let the ceiling be the floor Take the long way through the little wooden door If the day runs out, we’ll borrow one more Turn the room around, turn the room around [Verse 2] A paper tiger slept beneath the chair Its painted stripes were coming loose and thin You said the map was folded the wrong way I said, “Then maybe that’s where we begin” [Chorus] Turn the room around, let the ceiling be the floor Take the long way through the little wooden door If the day runs out, we’ll borrow one more Turn the room around, turn the room around [Bridge] The clock hands trade their places The hallway bends like wire We walk through painted faces And come out somewhere higher [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] Turn the room around, let the ceiling be the floor Take the long way through the little wooden door If the day runs out, we’ll borrow one more Turn the room around, turn the room around [Outro] The lemon’s still there, warm in the afternoon The blue thread loosens as the walls resume
