Lyrics

Daydream?
I spent a thousand years hiding behind
myself
Wandering?
These beaches where these tall ships have
set sail
I?m thinking what, ?If I could only tell how far I?
ve come.?
But you cannot ever know me now

Chorus
I was alive but mostly dead
I thought I knew you
You were a dream instead
I saw you?Dreaming things though you don?
t know the reasons why we are still here.

I knew a man who sweared he looked a lot
like I used to
He?s older now
He thinks he?s God
He thinks he?s living on the avenue
It?s bittersweet to watch your life and wonder
what is gone
But you cannot ever know me now?

Chorus
I saw the lights blink off and on
They were my life as I walked on and still
I saw you!
Dreaming things through the eyes of a
mermaid to tell me I forgot
I know now! I know now!
All you know is that the difference was our
love
You would say, ?But I loved you more, I know I
loved you more!?
But you cannot ever say?

It?s simple now to destroy a man who thinks
so simply
It?s wonderful how you can watch your life
and lose your self-control
But you cannot ever know me now
But you think you?d know
But you cannot ever know me
I think I might lose my mind

Chorus
Carry me home!
Carry me home!
Carry me home I gone so far away
Carry me home and take my life, ?Won?t you
take my life and find yourself again??
I lost you, I lost you
All you know is that my life came back behind
yours
You would say, ?Won?t you take my eyes??
I might lose eyes and see you again
Again, again?all you know is that difference
was our love
You would say, ?But I loved you more, I said I
KNOW I LOVED YOU MORE!?
Because you cannot ever say?
