Sally I Can See You by Kimbra Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a heartbeat in the distance, a flicker of light ahead
I've been down the street where they offer the deals
I'm shaking hands with the man who says he'll give me my dreams
Reaching up for a taste from a hand that feeds
I feel it growing from a whisper, to a shout and a fist in the air
I could smell the fire from miles away
But I was always going to run after the chase
I didn't leave you, I just went my own way
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I've been here before
It must have been years or more
Like the first the day that I got off of the plane
And nobody cared to know of my name
I think I've been here
[Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be
I've grown out of my own muse
But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be
I don't know how I got here
But my heart it hasn't changed
[Verse 2]
There's a melody I'm missing
But your song travels out to me still
Like the eyes of the dusk in the hot of the glow
But I was always going to run after the storm
I didn't leave you, I just leapt out from the shore
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not like it was before
My hair's short and my jeans are torn
Time passed in the nighttime over my head
Suddenly, I'm in the sea and I'm unprepared
I wish you'd been here
[Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be
I feel so out of my muse
But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be
I don't know how I got here
But my heart it hasn't changed
[Bridge]
I let go of your hand, I knew our time was measured
I sailed out to foreign lands, we'll still fly together
There's a child that I left in the town I treasured
I'm running fast but I'm not running away
[Pre-Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I was
I don't know how I got here
[Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be
I feel so out of my muse
But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be
I don't know how I got here
But my heart it hasn't changed
[Outro]
The push and the pull
I've been the Lover and the Fool
The grime and the glam
I've been the Devil and the Lamb
There's a heartbeat in the distance, a flicker of light ahead
I've been down the street where they offer the deals
I'm shaking hands with the man who says he'll give me my dreams
Reaching up for a taste from a hand that feeds
I feel it growing from a whisper, to a shout and a fist in the air
I could smell the fire from miles away
But I was always going to run after the chase
I didn't leave you, I just went my own way
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I've been here before
It must have been years or more
Like the first the day that I got off of the plane
And nobody cared to know of my name
I think I've been here
[Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be
I've grown out of my own muse
But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be
I don't know how I got here
But my heart it hasn't changed
[Verse 2]
There's a melody I'm missing
But your song travels out to me still
Like the eyes of the dusk in the hot of the glow
But I was always going to run after the storm
I didn't leave you, I just leapt out from the shore
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not like it was before
My hair's short and my jeans are torn
Time passed in the nighttime over my head
Suddenly, I'm in the sea and I'm unprepared
I wish you'd been here
[Chorus]
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be
I feel so out of my muse
But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be

But my heart, it has it's say
Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be
I don't know how I got here
But my heart it hasn't changed
[Outro]
The push and the pull
I've been the Lover and the Fool
The grime and the glam
I've been the Devil and the Lamb
