Falling from the west an so to find yourselves alone again,
Wondering where you have been, Your lonely voice calls across the starlit coast, Reaching out to be seen. She cries your name, Three times again, She cries your name, How long can this love remain. Cut beneath the surface screen of what we say and what we seem, Is a trick to be seen, She keeps crying out your name, But her scream sound the same, How fickle fate can be. She cries your name, Three times again, She cries your name, How long can this love remain. Birds that scream for territory can learn to sing euphorically, Give him time an' he's real, And there's a wasteland in your soul the burned out trees will leave you cold, Living out an ideal. She cries your name, Three times again, She cries your name, How long can this love remain. She cries your name, Twelve times again, She cries your name, How long can this love remain. |

I wanna sit and talk and laugh with you as the day ends
I wanna see your smiling face before the new day begins You'll never know what it means To see the sunlight in your hair and dancing everywhere I wanna shout about it But I keep quiet about it I wanna laugh about it But I don't joke about it I wanna live without it But I can't do without it I'm someone's daughter Are your somebody's son? Can I ease your pain till the morning comes I'm no one's daughter I belong to the sun Gonna ease your pain till the morning comes Keep looking for the reason High and low to let it go Keep losing my mind Looking for the peace that I'll never find I wanna know what it feels like To be the sunlight in your hair and dancing everywhere I wanna shout about it But I keep quiet about it I wanna laugh about it But I don't joke about it I wanna live without it But I can't do without it I'm someone's daughter Are your somebody's son? Can I ease your pain till the morning comes I'm no one's daughter I belong to the sun Gonna ease your pain 'til the morning comes |

I dreamed of you last night
You had a different face Or maybe just a haircut You were older and wiser Yet more like a child I was amazed to still find you There at the back of my mind This dream was short This dream was happy This dream was short This dream was happy Put your loving on a slow burner, If you want to keep your loving warmer Put your loving on a slow simmer If it helps to keep a light from growing dimmer Now hold on, hold out You're still thrown against that wall Never looking to be picked up Or left alone to fall Can you touch me with your love? Would I feel it if I trust enough? Could it almost be a lust for life? Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight? You could put it on a cold burner Deception never kept it any warmer The truth is cooking on a slow simmer A light still shining even when it's dimmer Hold on, hold out You're still thrown against that wall Never looking to be picked up Or left alone to fall Can you touch me with your love? Would I feel it if I trust enough? Could it almost be a lust for life? Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight? Troubled waters locked so far down below, Will have to find another place to go If the truth in my heart gets put aside Just let me go and wait for the next tide Hold on, hold out, I've been thrown against that wall Never wanted to be picked up And left alone to fall Then it touched me just like love, Still feel it when I trust enough, Could almost be a lust for life I can feel it though I'd not know it by sight I can feel it 'cause I know it's all right It's all right |

Stars light they sky and a galaxy of emptiness tonight
Though I'm happiest when there's no reason for me to be When no one's expectations to weigh heavy on my heart And so much hope it sometimes tears me all apart Won't you please knock me off my feet, for a while? Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while? Stars light they sky in a gutter full of of broken dreams tonight Though I'm not content that's the way it seems to be Still I've been fightin' all week though I don't know what for Hopin' someone else, someone near knows the score Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while? Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while? And there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight A whole galaxy of emptiness tonight There's a galaxy of emptiness... A whole galaxy of emptiness... Monkey see, monkey do I spent my whole life surrounded by people like you With all that expectation to weigh heavy on your heart But no ideas to later tear it all apart Won't you please knock me off my feet, for a while? Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while? Cause there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight A galaxy of emptiness... Burn burn burn your soul to find Burn burn burn your soul away Burn a soul to find Your soul to find |

Baby do you know what you did today,
Baby do you know what you took away, You took the blue out of the sky, My whole life changed when you said goodbye, An' I keep crying, crying. Ooooh baby, Ooooh baby, I wish I never saw the sunshine, I wish I never saw the sunshine, An' if I never saw the sunshine bay, Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain. Every day is just like the day before, All alone a million miles from shore, All of my dreams I dreamed with you, Now they will die and never come true, An' I keep crying, crying. Ooooh baby, Ooooh baby, I wish I never saw the sunshine, I wish I never saw the sunshine, An' if I never saw the sunshine bay, Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain. Ooooh this pain, And I know there would not be, This cloud that's over me, Everywhere I go. Ooooh baby, Ooooh baby, I wish I never saw the sunshine, I wish I never saw the sunshine, An' if I never saw the sunshine bay, Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain. Ooooh this pain, I wouldn't mind the rain, There wouldn't be this pain, I wouldn't mind the rain, I wouldn't mind the rain |

If I ever feel the light again
Shining down on me I don't have to tell you How welcome it would be I felt the light before, But I let it slip away And I just keep on believing That it'll come back someday It's not the spotlight It's not the candlelight Its not the streetlights On some old street of dreams It ain't the moonlight Not even the sunlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean Sometimes I try to tell myself The light was never real, Just a fantasy that used to be The way I used to feel But you and I know better Even though it's been so long Now if your memory really serves you well You'll never tell me no wrong It's not the spotlight It's not the candlelight Its not the streetlights On some old street of dreams It ain't the moonlight Not even the sunlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean So if I ever feel the light again Shining down on me, I won't have tell you How welcome it would be I felt the light before, But I let it slip away And I just live for believing That it'll come back someday It's not the spotlight It's not the candlelight Its not the streetlights On some old street of dreams It ain't the moonlight Not even the sunlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean Yeah, I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean |

Met him in a cafe one day and he told his story right away
They got married and divorced in the same day Now he'd rather know her debt than walking down some street, another plan in her head, in her head So many places they have never seen For everywhere now seems somewhere they must've been Look him in the eye to see his point of view But then it goes back to what he always knew Wouldn't you tell X3 Well summer days in chappel sky They were they preaching a lie with no black tie Who'd given and take in the same day He's tired from sleeping with the dead and could be running down some street, another plan in his head, in his head So many places he had never seen Now everywhere looks like somewhere he must've been He's looking everywhere to find a point of view Realizes it's come back what he knew If you were to leave before the morning light I pray there's an angel who'll hold you tight Guide you on some higher flight Somewhere far from here where blue seas run clear In this world where no one speaks the language I only want to start a new Wouldn't you tell X2 Wouldn't you tell X2 Wouldn't you tell X2 |

You walked into my house last night.
I couldn't help but notice A light that was long gone still burning strong. You were sitting, Your fingers like fuses. Your eyes were cinnamon. You said you stand for every known abuse That was ever threatened to anyone but you. And why should I know better by now When I'm old enough not to? While every line speaks the language of love It never held the meaning I was thinking of. And I can't decide over right or wrong. I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong Some may sing the wrong words to the wrong melodies It's little things like this that matter to me. Others feel that you should stand For every known abuse to hand And all the things that they could never see. You said you stood For every known abuse that was ever promised to anyone like you. Don't you wish you knew better by now When you're old enough not to? When every line speaks the language of love, It never held the meaning I was thinking of. And I can't decide over right or wrong. You left the feeling that I just do not belong. Do not belong X8 One drink too many And a joke gone too far I see a face drive like a stolen car. Gets harder to hide When you're hitching a ride Harder to hide what you really saw. Oh, yeah, you stand For every known abuse that I've ever seen my way through. Don't I wish I knew better by now? Well I think I'm starting to. When every line speaks the language of love It never held the meaning I was thinking of. And I've lost the line between right or wrong. I just want to find the place where I belong. Why should you know better by now, When you're old enough not to? I wish I knew better by now, When I'm old enough not to. |

She weaves secrets in her hair
The whispers are not hers to share. She's deep as a well. She's deep as a well. Another day wastes away, And my heart sinks with the sun. A new day's dawning, And a new day has not yet begun. So, anyway, There I was, Just sitting on your porch Drinking in the sweetest decline. The sweetest decline. Sober mind What's the use in regrets They're just things we haven't done yet. What are regrets? They're just lessons we haven't learned yet. Another day draws away, And my heart sinks with the sun. It's like catching snow on my tongue. It's like catching snow on my tongue. So, anyway, There I was, Just sitting on your porch Drink in the sweetest decline. The sweetest decline. Sober mind What are regrets? What are regrets? They're just lessons we haven't learned yet. It's like catching snow on your tongue. You can't pin this butterfly down. Can't pin this butterfly down. |

Running down a central reservation in last night's red dress,
And I can still smell you on my fingers and taste you on my breath; Stepping through brilliant shades, All the color you bring, This time, this time, this time, Is whatever I want it to mean. If this is where memories are made, I'm gonna like what I see, And everything that I ever took for granted, I'm gonna let it be. I step through every shade, All the color you bring, This time, this time, this time, Is whatever I want it to mean. And everything and nothing is as sacred as we'd want it to be, When it's really all, Make it really all, Compared to what. It's like living in the middle of the ocean, With no future, no past, And everything that's good about now, Well, might just glide right past. I'm stepping through brilliant shades, All the color you bring, This time, this time, this time, Is fine just as it is. And everything is sacred here, And nothing is as sacred as I want it to be, When it's really all compared to what. |

I dreamed of you last night
You had a different face Or maybe just a hair color You're older and wiser Yet more like a child I was amazed to find you still there in the back of my mind This dream was short This dream was happy This dream was short This dream was happy Perch your lover on a slow burner If you wanna keep your loving woman Perch your lover on a slow simmer If it helps keep the love from growing dimmer Now hold on hold out You're still thrown against a wall Never looking to be picked up or left alone to fall Can you touch me with your love? Would i feel it if i trust enough? Could it almost be a lust for life? Would i feel it if i don't know if i sighed? You could put it on a cold burner... Deception never kept you any warmer Truth is cooking on a slow simmer The light's still strong even when it's dimmer Yeah hold on hold out You got thrown against a wall Never wanted to be picked up or left alone to fall Can you touch me with your love? Would i feel it if i trust enough? Could it almost be a lust for life? Would i feel it if i don't know if i sighed? Troubled water's love fall down But laughter found another home to go If the truth in the heart gets put aside Just let me go and then wait for the millionth time Hold on, hold out I got thrown against the wall Wasn't looking to be picked up and left alone to fall Can you touch me with your love? Would i feel it if i trust enough? Could it almost be a lust for life? Would i feel it if i don't know if i sighed? I could feel it and i know it's alright It's alright... |

And you start swimming and swimming
And swimming, and swimming And you never stop swimming until you reach the ocean And you're swimming into the sunset without me And I find myself suddenly waking up And there are four young girls Giving me water from a vine leaf Just dropping it onto my tongue Nothing more, you surround me Break on through, release me Nothing more, you surround me Break on through, release me Break on through, release me Break on through, release me |
