Never Hollowed By The Stare

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave
Without leaving a piece of youth

And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change, the less you feel

Believe
Believe in me
Believe, believe

That life can change
That you’re not stuck in vain
We’re not the same, we’re different
Tonight
Tonight

Tonight, so bright
Tonight
Tonight

And you know you’re never sure
But you’re sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light

And the embers never fade
In your city by the lake
The place where you were born

Believe
Believe in me
Believe, believe

In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there’s not a chance
Tonight
Tonight

Tonight, so bright
Tonight
Tonight

We’ll crucify the insincere tonight
(Tonight)
We’ll make things right, we’ll feel it all tonight
(Tonight)
We’ll find a way to offer up the night
(Tonight)
The indescribable moments of your life
(Tonight)
The impossible is possible tonight
(Tonight)

Believe in me as I believe in you
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
Tonight

You were right
I know I can’t get enough of you
Leave it all bloom, you were right
I know I can’t get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

Under the water, I’m sinking further down
Floating I’m nothing, I’m nothing
Arms are wide open, I’m calling out your name
Sitting and waiting, I’m waiting

You were right
I know I can’t get enough of you
Leave it all bloom, you were right
I know I can’t get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

I’m cold in the river
Lips moving there’s no sound
Pulling me under, I’m under
You’ve given me nothing
Keep telling me I’ll be fine
Keeping me kissing, out guessing

You were right
I know I can’t get enough of you
Leave it all bloom, you were right
I know I can’t get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

Motion blurred dream visions and kindred faces
Thoughts like bursts of youth taking me places
Living the best outcome of myself
‘Cause I do remember where I come from

I’m happy
My home found me
By which force I do not know
I found my home and it grows by me in beauty

I feel air from another planet akin
Like a sense of truth that comes from within
A budding sapling reaching through
Giving rise to higher fruit and view

I’m happy
My home found me
By which force I do not know
I found my home and it grows by me in beauty

the happiest bird is the one that is heard
the happiest thing is the one that has wings
the happiest voice is the one that has a choice

so fly away and be free and make it on your own
fly fly fly now you’re free
will you find your way back to me
back to me
back to me
back to me

the happiest loon is the one that knows her way
that loon’s gotta think about it every single day
let her fly to the place that she wants to go
bet she flown and coop yourself
but you found your way back home

fly fly fly now you’re free
will you find your way back to me
fly fly fly now you’re free
will you find your way back to me
back to me
back to me
back to me

will you find your way back to me

In the morning when I wake
And the sun is coming through,
Oh, you fill my lungs with sweetness,
And you fill my head with you.

Shall I write it in a letter?
Shall I try to get it down?
Oh, you fill my head with pieces
Of a song I can’t get out.

Can I be close to you?
Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh
Can I be close to you?
Ooh, ooh.

Can I take you to a moment
Where the fields are painted gold
And the trees are filled with memories
Of the feelings never told?

When the evening pulls the sun down,
And the day is almost through,
Oh, the whole world it is sleeping,
But my world is you.

Can I be close to you?
(Ah) ooh (aah), ooh (aah).
Can I be close to you?
(Ah) ooh (aah), ooh (aah).

Can I be close to you?
Ooh, ooh.
