Katy Kirby - Portals

I'm an alternate universe in Target lingerie
You're a country song in three-four time
I can see through time in on a clear day

Tastes like black grape and chlorine
And something else that I can't name
Maybe I could describe it
Unless you make me I won't say

If we peel apart
Will we be stronger than we were before
We had formed ourselves together
In a temporary whole?
And if we could reunite, will we still know
The thing that we had learned before?
We're not boxes, doors or borders
We were portals

Our arms form a circle
And sometimes when they take that shape
Suddenly I'm in a tunnel
Headed to another state

You're a hand punched through a pane of glass
To get the handle on the other side
Yeah, we're cut on the knuckles
But at least we're open wide

If we peel apart
Will we be stronger than we were before
We had formed ourselves together
In a temporary whole?
And if we could reunite, will we still know
The thing that we had learned before?
We're not boxes, doors or borders
We were portals
