Babble

High on the hill in this red room by the ocean
We lay down on the floor of this house that you were falling
And the marks on your skin tell their story to my fingers
Close my eyes like a blind man and I wait to ride the night
(night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night)

Every word that you speak, I thread on a sacred necklace
Holding up to the light for I even run your record
Well all the things I cana??t say just become without a metric
Close my eyes like a blind man and I wait to ride the night
(night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night)

I just fell in as advice youa??ll make it shorter
And this scar that it leaves as it all that youa??ll take with you
As the fires all ignite like one thousand magic lanterns
Close my eyes like a blind man and I wait to ride the night
(night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night-night)

(Oh...oh oh oh oh...)
(Oh oh...)
(Oh...oh oh oh oh)
(Oh...oh oh oh oh...)
(Oh oh...)
(Oh...oh oh oh oh)

I guess you didn't hear me
When I told you for the first time
Well don't you worry
It won't be the last
All I need a floorboard
An a wooden shoe
Step aside an let my lady through

Hey foot, straw foot
Low we lay 'em down
Hey foot, straw foot
Up an back around

See the high priest
He took my place
When the judge looks to me
He saw a son's face
Not gonna join you in
Your tower of babble, boy
Tired of that talkin'
I'm sick of that noise

Hey foot, straw foot
Low we lay 'em down
Hey foot, straw foot
Coverin' ground

I am not alone
An looks can be deceivin'
When we get down to it
You're talkin' when you
Should be leavin'
I've been to Nebraska
It reminded me of Spain
All the questions loaded
All my answers same

Hey foot, straw foot
Low we lay 'em down
Hay foot, straw foot
Coverin' ground

Let us not mince our words
Let's say it true this time
I need your forgiveness
Just like you need mine
Tell me how it is that
You don't want what He's given
It ain't no sin, son
To be forgiven

Hey foot, straw foot
Low we lay 'em down
Hey foot, straw foot
All over town

(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...) Hey hey hey
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...) Hey hey hey
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)

I was dreaming, I was so high
I was blind, couldna??t see the light
U laid a stone inside my feet
You burn a fire; you burn a fire in my dreams

I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
I see the sun tonight

I was searching, I was open
I was drowning too far from home
Beautiful flowers into the sea
And every flower keep floating right back to me

I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
Whoa oh whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh, yoo, oh yeah (oh yeah)
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh ooh yeah (yeah hey)
Oh yeah, I see the sun tonight

(Ooh ooh)

You give me strength, you give me grace
You give me every little thing at every page
You hold the power, you are the life
You are the one who came so far to find

(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)
(Ah ah-ah...Ah ah-ah...)

I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
I saw the sun, I saw the sun
I saw the sun tonight
Whoa oh whoa oh oh, yeah
(Oh oh oh) yeah yeah (I saw the sun)
Whoa oh oh, wo o oo yea
(Oh oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah)
I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun, I saw the sun]
I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun tonight]
I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun, I saw the sun]
Oh (I saw the sun) I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun tonight]
(Yeah yeah) I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun] (I saw it again)
[I saw the sun] I see the sun tonight
(Oh oh oh oh) [I saw the sun tonight]
(Oh oh oh oh yeah) I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun] (I saw it again)
[I saw the sun] I see the sun tonight
[I saw the sun tonight] (Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I see the sun tonight

Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In the hanging garden
Please don't speak
In the hanging garden
No one sleeps
In the hanging garden
In the hanging garden

Catching haloes on the moon
Gives my hands the shapes of angels
In the heat of the night
The animals scream
In the heat of the night
Walking into a dream

Fall fall fall fall
Into the walls
Jump jump out of time
Fall fall fall fall
Out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals cry
In the hanging garden
In the hanging garden

Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In a hanging garden
Change the past
In a hanging garden
Wearing furs
And masks

Fall fall fall fall
Into the walls
Jump jump out of time
Fall fall fall fall
Out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals die
In the hanging garden
As the animals die
Cover my face as the animals die

In the hanging garden

In this tower, the highest sea
There are no words, there are no dreams
There is no life, there is no day
And time is the eternal game

In this tower on the hill
On this side, lying on a still
Then cries out, "Love Has No Name"
So she just floats through it again

In this tower, an endless sky
From heaven shines an ancient light
An old world we ever made, oh
Comes as though it fades away

In this tower, in my way, ha, ha, ha, ha
I'm the fire, I'm the light
Between the glory and the pain
And in this soul you cannot say

I know you're watching me 'cause I've been watching you
Pretend that you don't care when I know you really do
The stars are at war that heaven is up top
But I won't give you up I will shelter you from harm

You don't have to hold the sky up anymore
You don't have to hold your tears back anymore

The crown that you've been wearing is heavy on your soul
I look into your eyes, I see you all I need to know

You don't have to hold the sky up anymore
You don't have to hold your tears back anymore
You don't have to hold the sky up anymore
You don't have to hold your tears back anymore

I will put my arms around you, it's your turn to cry
You can close the door behind you, be the little child

You don't have to hold the sky up anymore
You don't have to hold your tears back anymore
You don't have to hold the sky up anymore
You don't have to hold your tears back anymore
