So, I Send You

I don't know where we're going
But I know where we've been
And you keep on calling
But you won't let me in
And I keep on waiting
Until one day
When I am so tired
I can't stay awake
And I listen to you singing
And it brings me back here
To that sleepy, old daydream
From the summer last year
When we were all dancing
And it all made sense
Now I am just begging
For one last chance

Sometimes Ghosts
03:42
|
|||
I was back and forth
Never here or there
I was never anywhere
Hear you call my name
Hear it bounce and change
Across the walls and floor
Out the door
Into the hall I see
You've come for me
Then you're gone
Sometimes ghosts appear
Whisper in my ear
Tell me that the end is near
We'll disappear
In a dream I saw
All the planets fall
Into empty shopping malls
Trumpets call
How can I feel so alive and dead
At the same time?
Once you just lay down
You'll feel alright
Once you just let go
You'll feel alive
Once you just lay down
You'll feel alright
Once you just let go
And say goodbye
I feel so alive and dead
How can I feel so alive and dead
At the same time?
I'm a shadow now
In your room I found
Hid among your memories
Like fallen leaves
On a cloudless day
Hear you call my name
I am alone, aware
I'm everywhere
Floating over now
As I say goodbye

Sally says that she's been thinking
But it feels a lot like sinking
She says I'm doing just fine
But every time I turn around
There's always something falling down
I swear I'm losing my mind
So she slips into the back
And puts her papers in a stack
And counts the days of the week
In a locket on a chain
She keeps the schedule of a train
And she hears herself speak
And she says
How did I get here?
It's the same thing year after year
Cause I don't have a lot to do
Or much to say
You know Rome wasn't built
In just a single day
I'm going to sit and think about the world
Then fade away
It's been so long
Oh, where'd you go?
It's been so long
Oh, where'd you go?
So she circles back into her stacks
And arms herself with paperbacks
She's queen for the day
But all this worry wears her down
And she's distracted by the sounds
And they lead her astray
And she says
I've waited so patiently
But I miss your company
Cause I don't have a lot to do
Or much to say
You know Rome wasn't built
In just a single day
I'm going to sit and think about the world
Then fade away
It's been so long
Oh, where'd you go?
It's been so long
Oh, where'd you go?
It's been so long
Oh, where'd you go?
Oh, I miss you so
I have lost the past
It's all I had
It's all I had
I have lost the past
It's all I had
It's all I had
Oh, sweet memory
You left me hopelessly
Makes me want to scream
But I will wait until tomorrow
I will wait until tomorrow
I will wait until tomorrow
I will wait

Tired Winds
02:02
|

I think about you all the time, you know
I've waited centuries so here I go
Close my eyes cause I can barely breathe
My future's just a distant memory
I just sit and watch the world pass me by
I don't know what is real or what's pretend
Floating through these days that never end
So bored of all the same conversations
Smile and nod, deny, fear to offend
I just sit and watch the world pass me by
I need to know
Just where'd you go
I'm waiting for a sign
And I can see
That they believe
That I am out of time
Your voice is near let's break away from here
Across the sea or through the atmosphere
Thick as thieves we sail off all alone
On tired winds we finally make it home

End of the Century
02:42
|
|||
I've known you so long I can't say when
Or remember where we first met
Or just how this all began
Sometimes we would look up and just stare
Fire through the air
I took your hand and we jumped from there
Life comes
And takes us by surprise
We drift along
But time's so well disguised
We are fooled
And believe she's on our side
Let's not trade the real for fantasy
Why did you come for me?
Is this where we're supposed to be?
So take off all your clothes and wait for me
In the place where we used to meet
At the end of the century
And I have come
To never be prepared
Though I know
Mistakes are everywhere
I am lost
But I've never been less scared
I am lost
But I've never been less scared

In a State
02:42
|

I'm in a state
Have been for days
And I don't know just why
Maybe because
I've been in love
But I didn't realize
All my life I wanted you
All my life I do
Stumble around
Town after town
And I can't remember my name
Days they slip by
Look in your eye
And I feel like I'm insane
All my life I wanted you
All my life I do
Now here I stand
Hat in my hand
Just hoping that you'll come by
Cause I'm in a state
Have been for days
And I don't know just why
All my life I wanted you
All my life I do

Tomorrow, Pt. 3
02:24
|

I remember sleepless nights
Staring up at the starlight
Dancing circles spinning
Arms around
Around, around we go
As the morning's breaking I
See my whole life flashing by
So I hold my breath
For one last dance
Now it seems so long ago
You left me here
I'm all alone
I've decided now's the time
No more books or lonely nights
All I have is yesterday
And you feel so far away
So I close my eyes
For one last time
I can't wait until tomorrow
I can't wait until tomorrow
I can't wait until tomorrow
I can't wait until tomorrow

Love, I will wait for you
While you find your way
I let you go
But I want to know
If you'll be back someday
Love, I will wait for you
While you find your way
I let you go
But I want to know
If you'll be back someday
If you'll be back someday
