Ludo - Hum Along lyrics

You'll never hear this song

You'll never see the movie in my head

But you infest my sleep, and your figure creeps

Through my walls and hums above my bed

I know your name, and that you're photogenic and tall

But I've never heard you talk

And there's something about you

That stabs me right through

It isn't right for me to paint your picture

Every night, but I do (I can­t find sleep)

And it feels so wrong (I breathe too deep), to sing this song (into the sky)

But maybe (as I walk and sing), somehow, you'll hear me (you'll hear a song)

And hum along

You'll hum along, you'll hum along, you'll hum along

And I've only seen you once, at your graduation

No cinematic glow or soft rock soundtrack

And I watched you move and breathe and cry

And it felt so wrong

It isn't right for me to paint your picture

Every night, but I do (I can­t find sleep)

And it feels so wrong (I breathe too deep), to sing this song (into the sky)

But maybe (as I walk and sing), somehow, you'll hear me (you'll hear a song)

And hum along

You'll hum along, you'll hum along, you'll hum along

Maybe you'd be kidnapped by pirates

And they would take you to their hideout

As pirates often do

But I'd find the secret map

And I would vigilante-bushwhack

Through the jungles of Peru

Just to save you and I'd take you north to Mexico

Where you would tell me your life story on the steps of a Mayan temple

Where we'd camp singing nonsense songs in 12 bars to the jaguars, until you'd sense me

Your eyes convincing, and I would kiss you like a hero in the half-light

Dryer sheets and peach shampoo, the smell of palm leaves, I'd sleep against you

Until the natives found us, but they would crown us king and queen

And we could stay there, spend our days there, eating guava by the sea

And I could understand your views and you could fall in love with me

And while the silly human race talks to droids in outer-space

We grow old and laugh about this song

And between the jungle and the stars, you sing nonsense songs in 12 bars to me

And in my sleep I hum along

You'll never hear this song

You'll never see the movie in my head
