about
lyrics
I’ll make my home where the wind blows
Faster than the eye can follow
Outside it’s two hundred degrees below
You’ll catch your death upon the surface
But at her core it’s like a furnace
Burning on out in the great unknown
I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view
Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon
Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom
And if you swing back around, girl I’ve waited for you
Where skies of blue go on forever
We’ll find a way to be together
I need your touch like an oxygen flow
I guess you got just what you came for
But I can’t let go; yes please, I want more
Can’t watch you slip into the clouds below
Well I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view
Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon
Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom
And if you swing back around, girl I’ve waited for you
Man, I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view
Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon
Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom
And if you swing back around, girl I’m waiting for you
I can’t stand by when i’ve seen what could be
I can’t just delete the memories of what you do to me
Oh darling, please
