[00:10.25] |
Life is easy, sitting in New York |
[00:19.17] |
Streets are loud so I never have to talk |
[00:23.10] |
Days are long so there's time to forget |
[00:26.59] |
Lift my eyes to the beautiful sunset |
[00:30.65] |
Keep my distance except when I want to |
[00:34.64] |
Feel the colour of what I learned about |
[00:39.01] |
As a boy in the glow of a screen |
[00:42.44] |
Set on leaving to make my life the dream |
[00:46.87] |
Fill my mouth with the language of others |
[00:50.12] |
Paint my skin with the shade of my lovers |
[00:54.18] |
Hide the cracks with the smiles that they see |
[00:57.86] |
Learn to be strong, and learn to be free |
[01:01.61] |
And I know that to your eyes |
[01:04.28] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[01:08.09] |
I know that where you are |
[01:12.09] |
I feel too far from home |
[01:16.14] |
And I know I spend these days |
[01:19.95] |
too far for you to share |
[01:23.94] |
But somewhere over the water, |
[01:28.07] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[01:33.49] |
Every year as we crawl to December |
[01:52.83] |
Count down the days till you think I remember |
[01:56.58] |
Where I am from, |
[01:58.14] |
and the life that you gave me |
[02:00.51] |
If only you knew you were wrong |
[02:03.07] |
Cos it's in the music, |
[02:06.19] |
the words I've been singing |
[02:08.24] |
It's the colour that never washes out |
[02:12.62] |
It's the beat of this heart you've been missing |
[02:16.17] |
It's the taste of the things you're wishing for |
[02:20.42] |
Though my mouth moves in different directions |
[02:23.97] |
And my skin knows another's touch by now |
[02:28.15] |
All the cracks are as plain to see |
[02:31.15] |
But I learn to be strong, |
[02:33.20] |
and learn to be free |
[02:35.33] |
And I know that your to mind |
[02:37.96] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[02:41.83] |
I know that where you are |
[02:45.64] |
I feel to far from home |
[02:49.69] |
And I know I spend these days |
[02:53.75] |
too far for you to share |
[02:57.56] |
But somewhere over the water |
[03:01.86] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[03:07.04] |
Life is good out here in New York |
[03:26.51] |
I miss my friends, I miss the rain |
[03:29.82] |
But I catch a glimpse of you |
[03:32.44] |
there in the rear view |
[03:34.32] |
Hear you laugh in the words that I say |
[03:37.62] |
I hope that you're OK |
[03:40.30] |
I hope that there's colour in all your days |
[03:45.55] |
|
[03:46.67] |
And when I look out to the sea I hope |
[03:50.66] |
that you're strong |
[03:51.60] |
and I hope that you're free |
[03:53.28] |
And I know that to your mind |
[03:56.09] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[03:59.96] |
I know that where you are |
[04:03.95] |
I feel to far from home |
[04:07.91] |
And I know I spend these days |
[04:11.65] |
too far for you to share |
[04:15.59] |
But somewhere over the water |
[04:19.83] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[04:24.39] |
And I know that to your mind |
[04:27.07] |
it seems like I'm alone |
[04:31.26] |
I know that where you are |
[04:34.99] |
I feel to far from home |
[04:38.99] |
And I know I spend these days |
[04:42.86] |
too far for you to share |
[04:46.79] |
But somewhere over the water |
[04:51.09] |
all my dreams are still in your care |
[04:57.64] |
Life is easy |
[05:13.49] |
Over the water Life is easy |
[05:21.42] |
Over the water Life is easy |
