|
Edward come and sit with me, |
|
I fell asleep and now I am afraid. |
|
The sun came up so quick and I |
|
Have always been suspicious of the day. |
|
The dream I had that you were in - |
|
Turned bad and then it finished, |
|
And I am glad to be awake. |
|
And glad, |
|
To be with you, |
|
Cause I feel safe when we're together. |
|
Read to me again |
|
About the King who took |
|
his daughter to the feast. |
|
Tell me how she lifted up her veils |
|
And she laid them at his feet. |
|
Execution in her eyes, |
|
She pointed to her prize, and said, |
|
"I want him to be mine." |
|
And everyone, |
|
Knew the man was going to lose |
|
his head tonight. |
|
I heard a sound, |
|
Across the lawns, |
|
Was like a hoof being taken from a horse. |
|
I understand, |
|
What you describe, |
|
That there are things we don't decide - |
|
They are decided for us. |
|
Still I would trust, |
|
That we are safe when we're together. |
|
Edward, come and tell me, |
|
Are there restaurants on Jericho today? |
|
Look out of the window on St Giles - |
|
Do the palaces remain? |
|
I have woken from a sleep. |
|
I am sure the world is different, |
|
That it's changed. |
|
Edward come and tell me, |
|
Are there restaurants on Jericho today? |
|
I heard a sound, |
|
Across the lawns, |
|
Was like a wave sweeping houses |
|
from the short. |
|
I understand, |
|
what you explain, |
|
That there are things that you believe, |
|
And you think you will see me again. |
|
Still it remains, |
|
That if I could, |
|
I'd string a cord, |
|
RIght from my stomach |
|
Into yours. |
|
I'd stand beside you, |
|
The day you face the tide, |
|
I think I could make it turn around, |
|
Know I could make it go dry. |
|
Cause you and I - |
|
We are safe when we're together. |
|
We are safe when we're together. |
|
We are safe when we're together. |
|
We are safe when we're together. |
|
We are. |
