Lyrics
Lately
I stand apart and watch you thinking
I perceive the melancholy
Within your eyes.
Lately
By day you're going through the motions
The evening comes and you move slowly
Without desires.
Come love
Let's celebrate the change of season
We'll see this world we live in
In ways our daily life deprives.
Here now
Let's sit and laugh and sing to freedom
We'll move to a higher plane
And see the world with different eyes.
(repeat)
The sun, the moon, the earth, the sky
With lovers' eyes.
Lately
I can perceive your spirit sinking
Let's lift ourselves above the worldly
Now is the time.
