[00:10.250] |
Life is easy, sitting in New York |
[00:19.170] |
Streets are loud so I never have to talk |
[00:23.100] |
Days are long so there's time to forget |
[00:26.590] |
Lift my eyes to the beautiful sunset |
[00:30.650] |
Keep my distance except when I want to |
[00:34.640] |
Feel the colour of what I learned about |
[00:39.010] |
As a boy in the glow of a screen |
[00:42.440] |
Set on leaving to make my life the dream |
[00:46.870] |
Fill my mouth with the language of others |
[00:50.120] |
Paint my skin with the shade of my lovers |
[00:54.180] |
Hide the cracks with the smiles that they see |
[00:57.860] |
Learn to be strong, and learn to be free |
[01:01.610] |
And I know that to your eyes |
[01:04.280] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[01:08.090] |
I know that where you are |
[01:12.090] |
I feel too far from home |
[01:16.140] |
And I know I spend these days |
[01:19.950] |
too far for you to share |
[01:23.940] |
But somewhere over the water, |
[01:28.070] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[01:33.490] |
Every year as we crawl to December |
[01:52.830] |
Count down the days till you think I remember |
[01:56.580] |
Where I am from, |
[01:58.140] |
and the life that you gave me |
[02:00.510] |
If only you knew you were wrong |
[02:03.070] |
Cos it's in the music, |
[02:06.190] |
the words I've been singing |
[02:08.240] |
It's the colour that never washes out |
[02:12.620] |
It's the beat of this heart you've been missing |
[02:16.170] |
It's the taste of the things you're wishing for |
[02:20.420] |
Though my mouth moves in different directions |
[02:23.970] |
And my skin knows another's touch by now |
[02:28.150] |
All the cracks are as plain to see |
[02:31.150] |
But I learn to be strong, |
[02:33.200] |
and learn to be free |
[02:35.330] |
And I know that your to mind |
[02:37.960] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[02:41.830] |
I know that where you are |
[02:45.640] |
I feel to far from home |
[02:49.690] |
And I know I spend these days |
[02:53.750] |
too far for you to share |
[02:57.560] |
But somewhere over the water |
[03:01.860] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[03:07.040] |
Life is good out here in New York |
[03:26.510] |
I miss my friends, I miss the rain |
[03:29.820] |
But I catch a glimpse of you |
[03:32.440] |
there in the rear view |
[03:34.320] |
Hear you laugh in the words that I say |
[03:37.620] |
I hope that you're OK |
[03:40.300] |
I hope that there's colour in all your days |
[03:45.550] |
|
[03:46.670] |
And when I look out to the sea I hope |
[03:50.660] |
that you're strong |
[03:51.600] |
and I hope that you're free |
[03:53.280] |
And I know that to your mind |
[03:56.090] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[03:59.960] |
I know that where you are |
[04:03.950] |
I feel to far from home |
[04:07.910] |
And I know I spend these days |
[04:11.650] |
too far for you to share |
[04:15.590] |
But somewhere over the water |
[04:19.830] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[04:24.390] |
And I know that to your mind |
[04:27.070] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[04:31.260] |
I know that where you are |
[04:34.990] |
I feel to far from home |
[04:38.990] |
And I know I spend these days |
[04:42.860] |
too far for you to share |
[04:46.790] |
But somewhere over the water |
[04:51.090] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[04:57.640] |
Life is easy |
[05:13.490] |
Over the water Life is easy |
[05:21.420] |
Over the water Life is easy |
