in shades of plastic yesterdays
the silhouette carousel spins me around
and around a cold steel cage
and it is your breath i want to drown in
setting free some broken wings
seething life and love and everything
from words we haven't even spoken yet
singing melodies and catchy tunes
we can play them all together
on our heart strings luring suns and moons
and we can watch them set and rise and fall
again and again forever
and the hopelessness would melt away
with a looming whisper of summer
silver-lining an echo of spring
Skip the winter baby
'cause i cant seem to want this
to feel so cold anymore
not without you
and the mornings in each others arms
with the bright lit sky breeding days anew
could keep us warm together

and the mornings in each others arms
with the bright lit sky breeding days anew
