Lyrics
|
|
Wait a minute baby. . .
|
Stay with me awhile
|
Said you'd give me light
|
But you never told me about the fire
|
|
Drowning in the sea of love
|
Where everyone would love to drown
|
And now it's gone
|
It doesn't matter anymore
|
When you build your house
|
Call me home
|
|
And he was just like a great dark wing
|
Within the wings of a storm
|
I think I had met my match--he was singing
|
And undoing the laces
|
Undoing the laces
|
|
Drowning in the sea of love
|
Where everyone would love to drown
|
And now it's gone
|
It doesn't matter anymore
|
When you build your house
|
Call me home
|
|
Hold on
|
The night is coming and the starling
|
flew for days
|
I'd stay home at night all the time
|
I'd go anywhere, anywhere
|
Ask me and I'm there because I care
|
|
Sara, you're the poet in my heart
|
Never change, never stop
|
And now it's gone
|
It doesn't matter what for
|
When you build your house
|
I'll come by
|
|
Drowning in the sea of love
|
Where everyone would love to drown
|
And now it's gone
|
It doesn't matter anymore
|
When you build your house
|
Call me home
|
|
All I ever wanted
|
Was to know that you were dreaming
|
(There's a heartbeat
|
And it never really died)
|
|
