Like Glass 03:39
Dreams of red silk, your smile hits me to the ground I am the broken flower in your winter garden at night The whispering trees reveal fantasies about us Leaves sway and wither in the dark and cold air Your songs strike a chord of purity in my heart The melancholic words ring colours of moody blue The keys on my piano send resonance thru the void Reverberating down the walls in the red room A ghost ran wild tonight as I lay sleepless in bed Thoughts of innocence broke the weak virgin inside me You said something that made the buzzing of the bees Sound like thunder on a January Sunday When we meet, you smile and pierce mirror light in my eyes A silent understanding, so delicately like glass I would like to know what depths lie in your soul Your apparent bashfulness intrigues me.

We ride in the night, rhythms lull us to sleep I wonder how to tell you why It would still take a lot for me to declare how I feel Your curly hair within my reach Your breath complements my heartbeat Feel it slowly closing in That you will evoke the holy truth There's not a star in the sky tonight We both know how darkness feels Goes without saying that our pointless love is mere pretence for something else The memory of your voice still remains In dreams it rings comforting sounds Wake up and reach for my pen and write some lines, if only in Dutch The city veins mark places we went The pulse on the streets will remain The nights will signal our goodbyes I will never caress you to sleep Took it too much to hard to heart and built a palazzo in the sky Feel relieved that things turned out this way I can look you in the eye and smile.

A soothing night with lavender skies Feeling warmth from the city lights Someone is singing across the bay I know it 'cause I return your smile Space is but the distance that unites us In the moments when we kiss Love is to listen to the rain upon your roof As you fall asleep in my arms I'll hold the strength of your eyes so tight Between us that it will make you stay When I feel your skin against mine You tremble soft in my hot embrace When I hold you it's right You tickle me and I thrive In matters of the heart Just goes to show Space is but the distance that unites us In the mornings we make love I know how you love the sound of rain upon the roof When you fall asleep in my arms

Let's dance with desolation There's nothing else to do Can you feel the desperation It's closing in on you Now yell it to the stars I thought you knew Words took you by surprise Daylight broke You're feeling down and out You're feeling lost Let's run from isolation I'll do it just for you Can you see our destination It's right there next to you
