A simple shelter for an exile in a field
Digging in with words of comfort
Notes of praise
And a mouthful of lies
A sympathetic gaze under clear blue skies
This is how we both want it to be
I could live here in this moment
For the way you are
Like a rocket across the sky
How we both need it to be
A spark
And a cry in the dark
Roll the dice, the test begun
Tied down by a hundred-foot chain
Dragging an anchor, set adrift
This is how we both want it to be
I could live here in this moment
For the way you are
Like a rocket across the sky
How we both need it to be
Three years are gone
But years ahead of her time
Confidently strange and bewitched
But she's changed
For the better, for the best
Like some old sleight of hand
This is how we both want it to be
I could live here in this moment
For the way you are
Like a rocket across the sky
How we both need it to be
For the way you are
Like a rocket across the sky
How we both need it to be
