Ogie / Naoko
[Verse]
We have but eternity, let’s waste it together
Dress me in sunlight and benevolent tethers
Swing on the radio, a kiss in the hallway
Ask me how long I’ll love you
The answer, always
Pen touches paper and all the world’s right
Or as right as it could be tonight
[Chorus]
Ogie, Naoko
Hearts in airmailed envelopes
Ogie, oh
Naoko
[Verse]
They fell in love through a war, fished flames from their breasts
The girl was a poet, the boy did his best
To float in between islands on black ink and sentiment
As the sage recommends, firm footing as friends
A tiptoe quotidian so close to the edge
Of the world, who knows, this could happen again
And where lay our loyalties, then?
To each other, of course, til the end
[Chorus]
Ogie, Naoko
Hearts in airmailed envelopes
Ogie, oh
Naoko
Pen touches paper and all the world’s right
Or as right as it could be tonight
Ogie, Naoko
Hearts in airmailed envelopes
Ogie, oh
Naoko
Ogie, Naoko
Hearts in airmailed envelopes
Ogie, oh
Naoko
Naoko
