Song One
if i should creep by your side
and whisper
and if we should spend one night
together forever
sewn seeds left to grow
howling winds left to blow
a spark to a distant flame high
can you see it
words in a rhyme in a song
can you hear it
as the world is spinning
an all forgot sinning
well i don't ever want to meet your kin
i only want to make your head spin
will wisdom wait for those who sleep
through the day
will a vision show its self for those
that do pray
sleeping in your arms i dream
i don't recall all that i seen
we are all dressed up now
we are flying
when the music stops
who is driving
players playing
and the winners winning
sometimes all i wish to see
its all hidden
what i want to take
is forbidden
so i heading to the light
try to race the endless night
i find myself tapping at your door
blind eyes
i stand with pride showing
only a disguise
i left my shoe when i got no more
i gave it all to the poor
my chains are broke now
my ship is sailing
the stars i knew now
are all fading
so the only thing i bring
is this simple song i sing
