|
Don't speak |
|
Words come out your eyes |
|
You're wet with this nightmare |
|
Like thorns you hold these secrets to your breast |
|
Your slender fingers closing into fists |
|
Trace your bruise |
|
Like a guilty streak |
|
Hold the pain |
|
You're a connoisseur |
|
You think you have no other gift to give |
|
But we have so much left to live |
|
We don't need a lot of money |
|
We'll be sleeping on the beach |
|
Keeping oceans within reach |
|
(Whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.) |
|
I will stumble there with you |
|
And you'll be laughing close with me |
|
Trying not to make a scene |
|
Etcetera. Whatever. I guess all I really mean |
|
Is we're gonna be alright |
|
Yeah, we're gonna be alright |
|
You can close your eyes tonight |
|
'Cause we're gonna be alright |
|
So come on now |
|
I can almost see |
|
That place |
|
On a distant shore |
|
And courage is a weapon we must use |
|
To find some life you can't refuse |
|
We don't need a lot of money |
|
We'll be sleeping on the beach |
|
Keeping oceans within reach |
|
(Whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.) |
|
I will stumble there with you |
|
And you'll be laughing close with me |
|
Trying not to make a scene |
|
Etcetera. Whatever. I guess all I really mean |
|
Is we're gonna be alright |
|
Yeah, we're gonna be alright |
|
You can close your eyes tonight |
|
'Cause we're gonna be alright |
|
All that I can see is your eyes |
|
Close your eyes |
|
Close your eyes |
