We see... what we want to see, but only a drop of what could be. |
|
Stop me if |
|
I'm going on... |
|
I dream in stale complacency. |
|
And in other words ... tell me you're all right. |
|
Just a whisper and |
|
I dreamed you cry, but |
|
I survived, courageous here ... and in other words ...on other worlds. |
|
And when my hands begin to bleed will you stay and comfort me? |
|
I feel afraid |
|
I might be living. |
|
Yeah. And if |
|
I had to the ends of |
|
Time would |
|
I ever make you mine? |
|
Just a whispered "yes" is all |
|
I need. Tasting you still on my tongue, shaking conch shells one by one, and trails of peaceful inequities. |
|
Insincere flattering by other ones in other words ... |
|
And when these wounds upon my brow, begin to seep the truth we found, do you feel we need to keep giving? |
|
And if I promised the world for you, |
|
I could make it all come true. |
|
With a whispered "yes" it's all |
|
I need. I don't know about tomorrow. |
|
I just know, |
|
I'll remember today... and the way... you looked at me. |
|
If my hands begin to bleed will you stay and comfort me? |
|
You looked at me. |
|
You looked at me. |
