I’ve been looking for someone You see I’ve mused on more than one I tried to think of other things I’m failing There's something different about this face I keep it with me in other places I think of funny things to say When I see her Oh she’s so fine I can’t talk about it My heart, it leaps and beats I hope she beats for me She’s been acting differently Like she’s nervous of when to speak Our souls are little dancing fools In the rain Oh, she’s so fine I can’t talk about it My heart, it leaps and beats I hope she beats for me Oh no, she’s so fine I can’t talk about it My heart, it leaps and beats I hope she beats for me Then came time to make the move I didn’t speak ‘cause I got no groove She fades away into the air Is she beating? Oh, she’s so fine I can’t talk about it My heart, it leaps and beats I hope she beats for me Oh no, she’s so fine I can’t talk about it My heart, it leaps and beats I hope she beats for me

I’m walking home and it’s getting dark And the other one is free She’s taking care she’s following She towers over me She’s keeping back to the shadows Though she’s rarely perceived There’s no one on the street with us And I turn to my old steed It’s been so many years and now She’s over twenty feet And oh, she takes me up to the sky We fly the rest of the night Farther up than ever before I see her more and more again Wherever I’m alone We rest on lonely mountain-tops To the north of Monaco In these moments taking in The view she seems to glow And oh, she takes me up to the sky We fly to desolate isles Places I had never known Tonight I see her waiting there In the middle of our field She seems a little restless Like she has a truth concealed Nonetheless, she bows and I Get on my dragon’s seat And oh, she takes me up to the sky And cries a mournful cry Takes me back to the falling leaves We set down in this darkened place Of memories dead and gone I fled this world a lifetime past To the Rock of Monaco Time has passed and I am old And I just want to go And oh, she takes me up to the sky We fly like the first time Free to never again be blue Meet my friend Her name’s unknown I met her when I wasn’t grown She takes me here She takes me there She always cares We’re quite a pair She flies

Take us back to your home ‘Cause you won’t find what you are looking for There’s no need to be sad You’re not alone though it can feel like that You’re following your heart But babe it’s broken, you can hear it Louder through your cocoon The sound of twenty thousand violins I see your sorrow Baby, I see it all Listen to all the voices of reason They know what I was Take us back to your home ‘Cause you won’t find what you are looking for There’s no need to be sad You’re not alone, though it can feel like that I see your sorrow Baby, I see it all Listen to all the voices of reason They know what I was This mess is like a lot of things we spoke about This mess is like a lot of things you told me about I see your sorrow Baby, I see it all Listen to all the voices of reason They know what I was I see your sorrow Baby, I see it all Listen to all the voices of reason They know what I was This mess is like You told me You told me You told me

Hold Back 06:27
I don’t wanna be alone with you I don’t wanna be alone with you Waiting for a bell to ring ‘Cause I don’t wanna be alone with you Hold back I don’t wanna be alone with you Taking back what’s rightly mine Waiting for a bell to ring ‘Cause I don’t wanna be alone with you Hold Back Hold Back I don’t wanna be alone In the night you lie awake and You suffer for your feelings You’ll waste away, you’ll die here Get up, get off You feel free of every burden As you float up to the ceiling And you look down at your body Get up, get off You’re looking for the other You’re seeking what I’m seeing I hope I am mistaken Get up, get off I shit you not, you’re losing Your very sense of being The thing that makes you human Get up, get off My words wasted on her She waits The long endless summer She waits She waits She waits
