[00:22.72] |
Under a blackened sky |
[00:23.85] |
|
[00:25.97] |
far beyond the glaring streetlights |
[00:31.36] |
sleeping on empty dreams |
[00:34.55] |
the vultures lie in wait |
[00:41.11] |
You lay down beside me then |
[00:45.41] |
you were with me every waking hour |
[00:47.85] |
|
[00:50.69] |
so close I could feel your breath |
[00:58.28] |
|
[00:59.97] |
When all we wanted was the dream |
[01:02.16] |
|
[01:04.41] |
to have and to hold that precious little thing |
[01:08.91] |
like every generation yields |
[01:13.71] |
the new born hope unjaded by their years |
[01:19.14] |
|
[01:30.14] |
Pressed up against the glass |
[01:32.21] |
|
[01:34.33] |
I found myself wanting sympathy |
[01:36.02] |
|
[01:39.52] |
but to be consumed again |
[01:41.89] |
oh I know would be the death of me |
[01:46.14] |
|
[01:47.64] |
and there is a love that's inherently given |
[01:51.09] |
|
[01:52.64] |
a kind of blindness offered to appease |
[01:57.72] |
and in that light of forbidden joy |
[02:01.80] |
oh I know I won't receive it |
[02:04.93] |
|
[02:07.68] |
When all we wanted was the dream |
[02:10.36] |
|
[02:11.87] |
to have and to hold that precious little thing |
[02:16.43] |
|
[02:17.11] |
like every generation yields |
[02:19.74] |
|
[02:21.68] |
the newborn hope unjaded by their years |
[02:26.74] |
|
[02:47.37] |
You know if I leave you now |
[02:51.70] |
It doesn't mean that I love you any less |
[02:55.70] |
|
[02:56.51] |
it's just the state I'm in |
[02:59.76] |
I can't be good to anyone else like this |
[03:04.11] |
|
[03:05.86] |
When all we wanted was the dream |
[03:09.73] |
to have and to hold that precious little thing |
[03:13.98] |
|
[03:15.30] |
like every generation yields |
[03:16.77] |
|
[03:19.91] |
the new born hope unjaded by their years. |
