Paint the stars in the sky
|
On the ceiling above our bed
|
Roll through the night with your blood
|
Beating hard like a drum inside my head
|
|
Paint the stars in the sky
|
That were shining on the night we met
|
If we can do this then we can do anything
|
|
Throw the clothes in a pile in the corner on the dirty wood floor
|
Open up the big windows and throw a chain on the double locked door
|
Open up to the flame
|
So strong, it feels so good even though we know that it's wrong
|
|
When we make love I feel complete, like I can do anything
|
We can lose ourselves to the far away sound of the noise of the boulevard
|
We can lose ourselves tonight underneath the western stars
|
|
The wind sounds just like the ocean
|
Blowing big through the trees in my backyard
|
I sit alone in a dark room smoking
|
And wondering where you are
|
|
You went away when the truth came down
|
The sex was not enough for you to make you want to stick around
|
You said that I made you feel weak
|
I made you feel like you couldn't do anything
|
|
I try to sing myself to sleep to the rythym of the sound of the boulevard cars
|
I lay awake with my eyes wide open underneath the western stars
|
|
Hard promises broken that should have never been made
|
|
You were cold in your anger
|
I was warm in the shame
|
|
I don't have any illusions of the good old days
|
If we make it through this then I know that
|
We can do anything
|
We can do anything
|
|
I'm going to walk all the steps and find a place where I can lie
|
Lay on my back in the grass and stare at the stars in the warm night sky
|
I'm going to find me a new blonde girl, hungry for the things that don't come easy in the real world
|
She will let me be myself
|
I know she will let me do anything
|
|
We can lose ourselves making love all night on a blanket in the neighborhood park
|
We can lose ourselves making love all night underneath the western stars
|
We can lose ourselves tonight underneath the western stars
|
|
Hard promises broken should have never been made
|
You were cold in your anger
|
I was warm in the shame
|
|
I don't have any illusions of the good old days
|
If I can make it through this then I know that I can do anything
|
I can do anything
|
