lyrics

There was something you said
But I can’t ask you again
To lay it down and let me in
While I drift on and on
But forever’s too brief
And please, don’t you ask me again
To belong as a friend
When you’re letting me go

So please throw me a line while I long
Feels like it’s pulling too strong
I forgot what you sang in that song

Euridyce please
Won’t you lead me down
Promise I won’t turn around
‘Til the light blend with the sound
A lyre inside I hold
But my feet touch the ground
Allow me to hold what surrounds
As if all around I allow

So please throw me a line while I long
Feels like it’s pulling too strong
I forgot what you sang in that song
That the breeze comes over too slow
I’m alright in the grass ‘cause I know
The soil from which we grow follows

Now the past drifts into your eyes
Haunted by the lights as they rise
Above what’s realized
But no more a fool that I could ever be
Haunted by a dream as I slip
Away from broken streams
