about

Life. A love song.

lyrics

Everything that's happened up til now
the typewriter tapping in the background
that old ghostwriter
up all night again
starting a story
and no idea
where it ends

Everything in all imagined time
molecules dancing in rhythm in rhyme
and every chance
nothing happens at all
Throw on that dress
somebody asked you to the ball

And the sonnets and the stories
and the planets and the stars
and the spray paint names
and the tailfin cars
blue haired laides singin' oh my grace
And I can feel your love just by the look on your face
I can feel your love just by the look on your face

Everywhere I used to want to go
boxes in a basement where I'd tread on tiptoe
all that worry, all that wasted love
out in the sunlight, we dance like that's enough

And the bottles in the alley
the radicals and kings
and the chariots fly
and they're squeaking like porch swings
turnpikes and Lucky Strikes
and pawnshop stones
sycamores and pintafores
you'll evefr walk alone
And the catcalls and the pratfalls
and the barroom songs
twirling with the fireflies
for summertimes gone
radio playing somewhere deep in space
and I can feel your love just by the look on your face
I can feel your love just by the look on your face

Everything that's happened up til now
the typewriter tapping in the background
that monkey's fingers
flyin' 'cross the keys
Heaven and Earth
It's more than you could dream
Heaven and Earth
It's more than you could dream
