Aaron Dessner - Every Letter Radio Edit Lyrics

[ROXANNE]
The ink on the paper makes me nervous
I nearly lose my vision
And then my breath and my pulse
And my mind quicken

Head below my knees I come alive
With every stroke of every letter
In every line you write

Keeps me awake thinking back
Oh, my first sight of you
Was my first heart attack

Every letter makes me lose my reason
Every word is like your kindest touch
And if I told you how much I need you
Would you give me yoursеlf or turn and run?

You light up desire just by describing it
I rеad to myself until I go blind
Your words fall around me all through the night
I can't resist and I don't want to fight

[CYRANO]
Will you be held?
Will you be touched?
By my hand through this paper
Is this all too much?
Will we be ravaged?
Will we be true?
To somebody perfect
Somebody like you?

[CHRISTIAN]
I'm tired of yearning
I'm tired of learning
I need to drink you
My heart has been burning

[ROXANNE & CHRISTIAN]
Ever since I saw you
Backwards through the glass
Of a thin windowpane
Like a thin see-through mask

These words are the truth
Just let them sink in
Through your thin-fingered gloves
To your hand, to your skin

Like ribbons on wrists
Let them hold you and twist
Let them touch you all over
Until you can't resist
[ROXANNE, CHRISTIAN & CYRANO]
Every letter makes me lose my reason
Every word is like your kindest touch
And if I told you how much I need you
Would you give me yourself or turn and run?
Would you give me yourself or turn and run?

[ROXANNE]
You light up desire just by describing it
I read to myself until I go blind
Your words fall around me all through the night

[ROXANNE & CHRISTIAN]
I can't resist and I don't wanna fight

[ROXANNE, CHRISTIAN & CYRANO]
Dim the lights, give me everything I want
Just talk to me like you do in your songs

[ROXANNE]
Your letters are drawings on me from above
I know who you are and I know you are loved
