Lyrics

Glisten by Angela Ramsey

Hey boy you?re spittin? fire and mystery
In the desolation of this room.
Are you still that pussycat you used to be
When your heart was open and the world was new?

Hey boy you took a chance and moved away;
Said the pay is good and the girl?s a rise.
What?s the deal with the nervous tongue and cryptic gaze?
Do you know the answer now or do you need a little time?

To tell me why you glisten every time I?m near.
You can?t deny you wonder after all these years.
You glisten; you glisten.

Check the watch it?s ten o?clock in much too late,
And wondering what if will never do.
But then again I lost myself in love?s embrace,
In the middle of yesterday, in the middle of you.

I guess I know why you glisten every time I?m near.
You can?t deny you wonder after all these years;
Your eyes, they hold me when you?re holding back.
In the glow of a paper moon, you glisten.

What if we could start again? Would we take another path?
I was so convinced our love wouldn?t last.

Can you tell me why? Do you know why? Won?t you tell me why?
Tell me why you glisten every time I?m near.
You can?t deny you wonder after all these years.
Your eyes, they hold me when you?re holding back.
In the glow of a paper moon, you glisten.
