Don't Say No
Can you tell me how it's been?
Living, breathing at the same time and then
I see your reflection in the glass as you leave
Every airplane landing carries you here
Don't say no, darling, don't say no

Will you tell me what you've seen?
Cars and buses filled with faces from magazines
I feel your fingers as the wind blows through
Barely reaching out, I'm touching you
Don't say no, baby, don't say no
Don't say no, baby, don't say no

I've been wondering since the day I was born
I found the answer in the rain, in the garden, the waves on the shore

I've been coming home to stay
Have you always been just light years away?
I hear you drumming on the window pane
Some I cast the shadow spelling my name
Don't say no, sweetheart, don't say no
Don't say no, baby, don't say no
Don't say no, my darling, don't say no
