about

Taken from Oktoba's debut album 'Smoke Signals'

lyrics

How do you feel
Because I ain’t seen you
for a long time it feels

As these days
come and go
And before we know it
we’re just names on a phone

Cos we’ve been going
back and forth my love
Trying to find a way we can all be one

Ignore the warning signs
and the writing on the wall
Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all

Well I stumble
through the room
Your mind’s already in places
were the stars meet the moon



And by sunrise
You’ll be gone
To my early morning lover
soon our roads will meet once more

Cos we’ve been going
back and forth my love
Trying to find a way we can all be one

Ignore the warning signs
and the writing on the wall
Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all

Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all
Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all
Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all

Cos we’ve been going
back and forth my love
Trying to find a way we can all be one

Ignore the warning signs
and the writing on the wall
Tongue tied and twisted
Let’s not miss it all
