Lyrics Dirty Projectors

Dirty Projectors

What Is the Time

Leave the spoon-fed champions

Leave the lamp lit prose

Leave the endlessly distracting matinées

And say hello

Hello

Hello

What is the time when I can call you by your name?

I don't know why it's been so long

Alone, imagining nobody

Once in a while, well

I guess the planets align

And show me the one I am

I am the one who would love you

Seek the dusty loan shark

On the last frontier

Join the modern miracle that looks flat

But reveals itself a sphere

As the wheel of inception steered years

What is the time when I can call you by your name?

I don't know why it's been so long

Alone, imagining nobody

Once in a while, well

I guess the planets align

And show me the one I am

I am the one who would love you

They say it's ashes to ashes

Passion is passing

And we all will die alone But while we're here on the planet

Dancing on prairie

Why do we drink all to and [?]?

What is the time when I can call you by your name?

I don't know why it's been so long

Alone, imagining nobody

Once in a while, well

I guess the planets align

And show me the one I am

I am the one who would love you

What is the time when I can call you by your name?

I don't know why it's been so long

Alone, imagining nobody

Once in a while, well

I guess the planets align

And show me the one I am

I am the one who would love you
