lyrics

Alone in the cold, 22 years old.
Did love leave you to wish away the sunshine?
Reach out to a friend; anyone to ease the pain.
You’re keeping all the answers on the inside.

Speak to me and I will listen
Say the words that I am missing.
Speak to me in terms uncertain.
Together we can lift the curtain.

On a sea we ride. Driftwood & plastic bottles collide
And high above the waters of connection,
The moon it glows, as every lover knows,
But only through the hidden sun’s reflection.

Speak to me and I will listen
Say the words that I am missing.
Speak to me in terms uncertain.
Together we can lift the curtain.

I will listen what you have to say
I will listen if you come my way.
I will listen if you call my name.

Alone in the world, 69 years old;
Talking to the checkout girl at Safeway.
The dining room the bills;
The candles on the windowsill;
The boxes lie awaiting for a safe day.

Speak to me and I will listen
Say the words that I am missing.
Speak to me in terms uncertain.
Together we can lift the curtain.
