    Lyrics
    I watched you shimmer in your skin,
    water streaming from your hair.
    dressing slowly on the sand
    like I wasn't even there.
    how long since summer stretched
    endlessly before our eyes?
    how long since autumn came?
    whispers and goodbyes...

    hard to breathe and hard to speak,
    moving farther out of reach,
    you want to hold it in your hand.
    but it's burning to the touch,
    there's nothing you can do but watch,
    helpless, frozen where you stand.

    and our lives seem
    like a half remembered dream.
    we long to bring back
    all those pretty lost things
    that slipped away just like mercury.

    two small burns upon your neck,
    "one is love, the other fear."
    laughing, face against the sky
    something only you can hear.
    how long since summer left us with regrets?
    how long 'til we forget?

    full of sadness, full of grace,
    tasting all there was to taste,
    before it turned to memory.
    now it's fading all the time
    and all the traces left behind
    are dissolving deep inside of me.

    and our lives seem
    like a half-remembered dream.
    we long to bring back
    all those pretty lost things
    that slipped away just like mercury.

    memories lingered as you ran your fingers
    across my face.
    shining silver liquid seemed to shiver
    as it slipped away.

    and sometimes, I swear
    you move like mercury.
