The morning sun opens up my eyes
|
What I see is the same world I know you're seeing
|
My dreams are real until I realise
|
Realising's a slow fade from thought to being
|
The waking world is full of cynics' sighs
|
Cynicism's a box I don't want to be in
|
I'll stay in bed until I stabilize
|
|
I try to write this song
|
To move my life along
|
I know what I dream of
|
I'll save my life for love
|
|
Hidden meanings don't need to hide
|
When I hide from the world you're the one who'll find me
|
They don't need screening from the world outside
|
If the truth's overdue I know you'll remind me
|
If the truth police are sniffing out a lie
|
I've done nothing in life I can't put behind me
|
I'll use my life as an alibi
|
|
Meaning is something I got from you
|
Whenever I lost the plot you knew
|
What is it I haven't got
|
When I've got you
|
|
Meaning is something I got from you
|
Whenever I lost the plot you knew
|
What is it I haven't got
|
When I've got you
|
|
All my life I felt so uptight
|
Now it's all right.
