Well Little Dawn walks on,
|
and she thinks she don't belong under the starry heights
|
So take a sigh as long as the war's been going on in your heart tonight
|
And if you want to make that light, go on and swim across the ocean
|
And if you want to make it right, go on and put your plan in motion
|
The gap is only as wide as the hollow of the sky between you, my dear
|
And the truth, absolute,
|
adding naught more profound to it than that you are here
|
And if you want to keep it bright, well you might have to burn a candle
|
And if you want to keep it tight, well you might have to learn to handle
|
But on the days and nights its hard to breathe
|
and you can't believe you still walk the streets
|
Stretch out your weary hand to me - it's alright
|
And if you're not content to just believe
|
And if you don't consent to just let it be
|
Stretch out your legs and dance with me all night, tonight
|
It's alright (repeat)
|
