I like to say
I make good use of my time
While you've been away
And it's true
I've been at my piano every day
Thinking of you
They talk around
I hear them whisper
It's the funniest thing really
They think you're gone forever
I know the truth
It's just getting hard to believe it
And they all tell me it's over
Even the stars are aligned
And I
I follow the signs so clearly
And still I fall and
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the signs so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
I'm not the same
I can't sleep nights
And now I'm calling when I do
And yet without you
They say I get better better better
When they all tell me it's over
I damn the gods until the stars are aligned
And I
I follow the signs so clearly
And still I fall and
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the signs so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
Look at my life, look at my face
Can't you see my heart bleeding down my sleeve
So you're holding my hand and holding my heart
But I just want to feel your breath inside me
So I can breathe
Somewhere in the distance I catch a sparkle
Grace or hope something that makes me feel like
I'm alive
It's never too soon it's never late so I start
Screaming out, I see your face
I see your hand reaching out
So I yell to you and I say
I follow the signs so clearly
And still I fall and
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the signs so clearly
And still they caught me
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the signs so clearly
And still I fall and
The quicksands pulling me down
I know you can feel me rising
And I'm fire if you keep on pulling me up
Look at my life and look at my face
Look at what I've done to get to this place with you
Be here
