|
I've been locked out
|
I've been locked in
|
But I always seem to come back again
|
When you're in that room
|
What do you do?
|
I know that I will have you in the end
|
|
And the clouds they are crying on you
|
And the birds are offering up their tunes
|
In a shack as remote as a mansion
|
You escape into a place where nothing moves
|
|
I've been locked out
|
And I know we're through
|
But I can't begin to face up to the truth
|
I waited so long for the walls to crack
|
But I know that I will one day have you back
|
|
And the hills are as soft as a pillow
|
And they cast a shadow on my bed
|
And the view when I look through my window
|
Is an altarpiece I'm praying to for the living and the dead
|
|
Twin valley shines in the morning sun
|
I send a message out to my only one
|
|
And I've been locked out and I know we're through
|
But I can't begin to face up to the truth
|
I waited so long for the walls to crack
|
But I know that I will one day have you back
|
|
And I work with the bees and the honey
|
And every night I circle like the moon
|
And it's a act of simple devotion
|
But it can take forever when you've got something to prove
|
|
I've been locked out
|
