lyrics

Hey ho, how you doing mister?
Oh no, think you're going to miss her?
Don't show too many feelings,
They will come out when the time right.

I said "Candles can be dangerous," and she agreed with a smile
And the dusk it settled slightly around us into a peaceful night
But my heart knew none of that peace and I lay there for quite some time
Sleep it was a sweet release and the rain came down from the sky

There are many proverbs and more than a few cliches
Tripping on my tongue tonight but I box them up and I bury them away
The world it turned, a storm it passed. Some days the world and I we just don't relate.
Still every twist and turn it helps this blood keep pulsing through my veins
