Lyrics
[female vocals]
Too many lullabies fade away to a place where all love and confusion is just illusion. Doors open wide with for the pain and grief
that we all feel with almost no exeption. What's the connection?
Repressed emotions unsurfacing make it harder to live in denial. And finally inside us we die.
Dreams of a lover so far away. Wasting time time while I pine for another - unlike no other. So as the lullaby fades away keep in mind that there once was another, and silently, and finally died.
[male vocals]
Blue, green afternoon, wish upon the waxing moon. Moonlight, oh so bright, though you never noticed my eyes. My eyes were blue-green the thought of losing you. So fine, so inclined. We can walk the miles and hours and years.
Your eyes they take me by surprise again once more. Its nearly all I'm hoping for. We can't go on without love.
It maybe too late but now I can't decide on what to do. I need to know your soul is true. I'd like a sign from above that its the only way to go.
Your eyes they take me by surprise again once more. Its nearly all I'm hoping for. Can you go on without love?
Remember one Sunday morning, You called me on the telephone. How many days 'til you alone? Give me a sign from heaven that it's the only way to go.
