Sadness
8.00 Pm on a Thursday
[Verse 1]
The view from on top of the world
Is on the roof of your orange house
Somehow there are no hills in sight
Yet a mountain range in your bedroom
At the line where the sky begins
Begins the warmest moment of the day
A blanket of April twilight
And the stars run through your veins
[Pre-Chorus]
In the shadows of evening leaves
There's a light that won't fade
And its burning your hand in mine
When it rains and they won't see me
They won't see us this time
[Chorus]
Somewhere in a spring night I know
All the many sounds we share
We couldn't have heard them all
When the only one I hear is your touch
If the world is in my hands
Why is it so hard to tell
To tell you how, just how I feel
I wanna see the stars with you
[Verse 2]
Stars in your eyes
Melt into my hands
My hands melt into yours
Your hands become my eyes
I want to see
Everything you touch
Everything you love
Everything you are
[Pre-Chorus]
In the shadows of evening leaves
There's a light that won't fade
And its burning your hand in mine
When it rains and they won't see me
They won't see us
We're on top of the world
[Chorus]
Somewhere in a spring night I know
All the many sounds we share
We couldn't have heard them all
When the only one I hear is your touch
If the world is in my hands
Why is it so hard to tell
To tell you how, just how I feel
I wanna see the stars with you
[Bridge]
Stars in your eyes
Melt into my hands
Stars in your eyes
Melt into my hands
Into my hands
Into my hands
[Chorus]
Somewhere in a spring night I know
All the many sounds we share
We couldn't have heard them all
When the only one I hear is your touch
If the world is in my hands
Why is it so hard to tell
To tell you how, just how I feel
I wanna see the stars with you
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Somewhere in a spring night I know
All the many sounds we share
We couldn't have heard them all
When the only one I hear is your touch
If the world is in my hands
Why is it so hard to tell
To tell you how, just how I feel
I wanna see the stars with you
