Many times love is on the table an' the stakes are high. And I thought this was love so I laid it all on the line. You nearly took everything I have. Never knew I could hurt so bad.
What is life to me without thee?. What is left if thou art dead?. What is life; life without thee?. What is life without my love?. What is life if thou art dead?.
Verse 1. We make coffee. Make polite conversations. Make plans for the day. And our summer vacation. Make reservations for dinner with friends. We make allowances.
All the things I tried. Mistakes made in my old life. I picked you up that night. All my wrongs don't make you right. . Silence reminds me. I'm a secret too dirty to keep.
Got your little secret, no, I will not tell. You're trying to sober up in the highway motel. And my hands are covered with your smell. You begged me to stay and sing you a song.
How did you do it. How did you make me fall for you so badly. How did it happen. How come I just gave my heart to you so gladly. . You are here in my mind.
Rising up. Can you feel my adrenaline pumping?. It's too much. Just a crush I can't deny. . I don't wanna hold back no more. It's too hard for me to ignore.
Hailstorms covering the morning sky. Your ambiguous words floating through my mind. Your heart is burning but you hide the love inside. My head is like a whirlwind turning.
Here I stand alone. With this weight upon my heart. And it will not go away. . In my head, I keep on looking back. Right back to the start. Wondering what it was that made you change.
I've been working towards a good life. Restless days and sleepless nights. I have to make the bread. I have to meet the ends. can't afford to gaze. no time to waste with my friends no!.
Back before the blues were blue. When the good ol' songs were new. Songs that may no longer please us. 'Bout the darkies, about Jesus. Mississippi minstrels color of molasses.
In the dessert where the stars are bright. And constellations rule your life. Long ago three kings set out. To follow a peculiar light. . What did they see up in the sky.
Gone is the romance that was so divine. 'Tis broken and cannot be mended. You must go your way and I must go mine. But now that our love dreams have ended.
Maybe its much too early in the game. Ah, but I thought Id ask you just the same. What are you doing New Years. New Years Eve?. . Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight.
Palm trees and glitter balls. Encounters in the mirrored walls. Life changing conversations. I'm in love with railway stations. . Wonder feeling. Take me to the motorway.
Wouldn't it be nice to walk together. Baring our souls while wearing out the leather. We could talk shop, harmonize a song. Wouldn't it be nice to walk along.
Packing up speakers, winding up cables, 22 nights in June, I really hope September gets here soon. . Sending out emails, scribbling down lyrics, trying to keep up with you, 90 more days and this crazy summer's through.
I'll wait patiently. When the world. You're caught up in fades. Come to me. And you know I'm not holding my breath. But you know how to find me. And you know there's a knot in my chest.
Red eyes fly away from here every night. My intentions aren't unfair or unkind. How else could I purge my heart of this pillowed dream?. Arctic wind will be washed from my hair.
What else can I do. but to sit and think of you. and how love walked through that door. and moved boldly 'cross the floor. but love's not here anymore.
