lyrics

Beautiful, you'll have to forgive me if I seem too at ease,
I mistake my imagination for memory sometimes.
I'm not searching for the difference between reality and dreams
'cause it's a sweet illusion, a private mess of small crimes, and you..

..a hurricane to dewdrops, a moment when the world stops, a flame to light the earth,
Oh, you
Though I might do without, one kind word spilled from your mouth might spark my soul's rebirth.

I've been void of feeling too many seasons come and gone,
I've been looking to the next month just to look to the next once more.
The colour's returning, the palette pouring from your eyes,
Greys are giving way to kaleidoscope's from old lore, and you..

..a hurricane to dewdrops, a moment when the world stops, a flame to light the earth,
Oh, you
Though I might do without, one kind word spilled from your mouth might spark my soul's rebirth.

I'll sit and watch the universe unfold with you, for you.
