such great heights - the postal service

I
am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes
are mirror images and
when we kiss they're perfectly aligned

And I
have to speculate
that God himself did make us
into corresponding shapes
like puzzle pieces from the clay

True
it may seem like a stretch
but it's thoughts like this that catch
my troubled head when you're away
when I am missing you to death

When you
are out there on the road
for several weeks of shows
and when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
'come down now,' they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I
tried my best to leave
this all on your machine
but the persistent beat
it sounded thin upon listening

That
frankly will not fly
you will hear the shrillest highs
and lowest lows with the windows down
when this is guiding you home

aún no puedo creer que hayan pasado cinco años desde que escuché por primera vez esta canción, y aún no puedo creer lo muchísimo que me sigue gustando. todo el único album de the postal service es una auténtica maravilla, totalmente recomendable, y la voz del cantante de death cab se funde tan bien con los sonidos electrónicos de jimmy tamborello que no creo que nunca me guste un album entero tanto como éste
