Lyrics[]
As I watch you flickering slowly in the shadows nothing to hold it's as if I don't recall our time before and would it be so wrong - not to remember? There are times I look at you differently like I'd never seen you before funny after all we've done you could be someone I don't know at all (don't know you at all) catch me I don't want to fall but you pull the mountain from under me look I'm dangling up in the blue and it's a cartoon coyote eternity before I drop down to you what am I supposed to do now? (Middle instrumental) There is something beautiful shining in the far off night of your hair funny for a while it seemed to come from the sky but it's in your head yes it fills your head you and I don't always fly let me go I want to fall deep into the dark but I'll get back to you and I'll always know how to find you Cause you shine like the midnight sun
