Sun In Spring
04:02
|
|||
Never seen sunshine like today,
Tar from the streets; it melts away.
Outside the bar, we're talking,
You were free, our eyes were locking,
Never seen sunshine like today.
You are like the sun in spring,
And I am like the rain.
Never dreamed slowly like today.
Haze falls below me sheets of grey,
Floating on bourbon stockings,
You take me, the hills are rocking,
Never dreamed slowly like today.
You are like the sun in spring,
And I am like the rain.
You are like the early morning,
I am like the day.

The Right Way To Fall
04:21
|
|||
You've seen me here before,
Coming downtown from the setting sun,
Into the cellar door.
We had our looks and we melted away.
I saw you hang in the hall,
Saw you standing with your back up,
Your foot against the wall.
You were much too cool to take my hand.
Working on the right way to fall,
There's only one, I've seen 'em all,
But keep coming back for more.
Working on the right way to fall this time.
You left your coat at my house,
Left me sleeping with no second chance,
You’re quiet as a mouse.
You were much too proud to call again.
You've seen me here before,
Coming downtown from the setting sun,
Into the cellar door.
We had our looks, and we melted away.
Working on the right way to fall,
There's only one, I've seen 'em all,
But keep coming back for more.
Working on the right way to fall this time.

It's Alright
04:28
|

I want to fall into this, and never be found.
I want to close the distance, cover the ground.
Morning meet me when I come to rest,
Get lost in the dreams I'm weaving into your head.
Quiet on the canyon where we lay our head.
Silent: the dying of the sun, Indian red.
Forget where you're going, or where you been.
I'm all alone here won't you bring me in.
Complete my heart tonight, our minds are running free,
I’ll be the one who wakes you, the one to make you see,
It’s alright.
When all the hours fall down, and daylight's a dream,
Will you remember this night and come back to me?
There's something that holds you closely, under your skin,
Something that pulls you back here, again and again.
Come steal my time tonight, it’s only us who's free.
I’ll be the one for you, the one to make you see,
It’s alright.
Come see the sky tonight, it’s only you and me.
Tell me you're here to stay, there's nowhere else to be,
It’s alright.

Eternal Phase
05:41
|
|||
Slept until I dreamed I had returned to my native home.
Woke up with a tear and felt more than I’d ever known.
Out of our minds, out of our time, it’s fleeting.
Saw my old place, saw my friends, but the city was overgrown;
Town so dense, don’t recognize the streets that I used to roam.
Out of our minds, out of our time, I’m reeling.
Our bodies link, eternal phase,
Outlined in ink, I’m counting days,
I can’t escape from the feeling.
Nowhere is too far from the cities and avenues.
Keep trying hard to return to the place where I first saw you.
Out of our minds, out of our time, it’s fleeting.
Our bodies link, eternal phase,
Outlined in ink, I’m counting days,
I can’t escape from the feeling.
And when we drink our final praise,
We’ll stop to think and count the ways--
Our time should keep on repeating.
Without you, I’m all broken, and I’m all blue.
Except for you, the streets are dark, and I’m falling through.
If not for you, we’re not in motion, and we’re still untrue.
Without you, the sky is falling, I’m breaking through.
Our bodies link, eternal phase, (You’ve got the time)
Outlined in ink, I’m counting days, (You’ve got the time)
I can’t escape from the feeling. (You’ve got the time)
And when we drink our final praise, (You’ve got the time)
We’ll stop to think and count the ways-- (You’ve got the time)
Our time should keep on repeating. (You’ve got the time)

When the lights go down, and the music dies,
When I walk alone through an empty night,
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting.
When the bed feels cold, and my dreams are dark,
When I miss your eyes, and I need your heart,
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting.
Never gonna give my love away,
Never gonna give my heart, it's only you.
Never gonna give my love away,
Never gonna give my heart, it's only you.
When I wake alone to a cryin' sky,
When I'm standing still, and the world goes by,
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting.
When he wants my love, and I have to lie,
When I'm called a fool, and I can't deny,
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting.
Never gonna give my love away,
Never gonna give my heart, it's only you.
Never gonna give my love away,
If I'm gonna give my heart, it's only you.

I Hope I Have This Dream
03:43
|
|||
Tell me, if I stay asleep,
Could I ever live without your love?
Could I ever hope to keep
The dream inside of me?
Would it ever be enough,
Could I live a life without a purpose?
Baby, if you stay behind,
Could I ever wake up from this sleep?
Could I ever hope to find
A piece to keep with me?
Would it be enough to last?
Could I live a love that has no purpose?
I hope I have this dream inside of me.
Tell me, if I wake again,
Would I ever see the ghost of you?
Would I ever see the end
Of what you left for me?
And tell me would it be enough,
Enough to live a love without purpose?
I hope I have this dream inside of me.
