lyrics

Dancing with our eyes closed
As elation wrapped around every part of me
Hopped up on some shit we found on the street
Your trousers caught on fire
By your cigarette, I don’t know if I was laughing or crying
As we ran all the way home
Back to our sheets
Oh how beautiful, the push and the pull
Of a warm embrace
And how delicate, the eyes desolate
In a lover’s face

Getting out of town I hitched a ride with a carpenter
He dropped me off at the coastline
Where I slept
And morning came with children
In the laughter of the seagulls
And the lighthearted haze
As I drifted under the water
To be swept away
Oh how beautiful, the push and the pull
Of a breathing day
And how delicate, the land, desolate
In a quiet place
The sad simple truth, no matter what you do
Some things always remain
The sad thing to know, no matter where you go
You will still feel the same
But how beautiful
The push and the pull
Of a human race
And how delicate
The heart, desolate
Gone, without a trace
