Lyrics

Looking for a Sign
© Copyright Shaun Gardener / Marcella Russo 14 November 2003

Morning comes and nothing changes,
Saddened hearts chase the loss.
Spilling thoughts on empty pages
A silent plea for no one to see.
Your night's a shade of grey, you wake but every day
Gets harder for you to see it through.

You say you don't know what you're looking for but you need to still the spinning of your mind,
You're looking for a sign, a reason to believe.
Then right before your eyes, I'll bend the spoon, turn wine to water,
Suspend your disbelief, I'll teach how to dream,
To hang rainbows in your sky when tears are falling

Leaving friends along the way you
Keep running from everything you want.
So many hands could show you so many arms would hold you
And sail your storm just to take you home
But every loving word falls at your feet to stay unheard
A lonely life but you don't know why.

Repeat chorus

Happiness won't last if it's held too tight.
To find what you've been looking for, don't open up your eyes.
Take a chance jump into your life
Don't be afraid of falling when you could learn to fly.
