[00:08.86]Sometimes it seems like only yesterday
[00:17.42]I who never was one to fold my hands
[00:23.07]and pray turned to the sky
[00:26.18]It was the spookiest July I've ever seen
[00:32.06]
[00:32.86]There was a whispering in the wire
[00:36.79]& a song in the trees
[00:39.04]
[00:46.96]How I wanted you to step in to my world
[00:52.01]
[00:52.59]And brighten the shade
[00:55.38]How I wanted you
[00:57.79]You took the blue out of the blues
[01:01.11]And the gray out of gray
[01:03.36]
[01:09.17]Three clouds afloat about above the riverside
[01:13.98]
[01:17.59]From Nine flights up the town looked
[01:21.33]just about a thimbles size
[01:24.39]
[01:25.01]And when you walked into the room
[01:28.51]
[01:29.13]I thought I could hear my favourite tune
[01:32.64]
[01:33.31]Rise from the floorboards,
[01:35.82]through the roof and into a sky of blue
[01:40.19]
[01:47.48]How I wanted you to step into my world
[01:52.03]
[01:53.04]And let the light slip in
[01:55.90]How I wanted you to step in to my sorry life
[02:00.78]
[02:01.40]And make it begin
[02:03.08]
[02:43.20]A winding road leads off into the dark
[02:48.14]
[02:51.44]From the clear light of the present
[02:54.62]
[02:55.43]to the shadows of the past
[02:58.80]You picture a scene, the smallest thing
[03:03.13]A certain something springs to mind
[03:07.06]And it rattles the wire
[03:09.48]And makes these memories seem almost alive
[03:13.49]
[03:21.29]How I wanted you to step in to my world
[03:25.96]
[03:26.96]And brighten the shade
[03:28.84]
[03:29.76]How I wanted you,
[03:31.76]You coloured the stars and sky
[03:35.21]And I wanted you to be mine
