We were live on arrival. Safe home at last. No cannon fire dockside. No flags half-mast. . We were sold out for silver. And a string of black pearls. On the loneliest island.
A quiet conversation, a solitary prayer. Listening in the silence and knowing You are there. Emptying my troubled heart, my secret hopes and fears. You speak to me in whispered words that the heart alone can hear.
You hold on to hope. Shell change her mind. Come runnin back. Straight back to you. . You hold on to the past. Wont set it free. You keep makin wishes.
Ive ordered the flowers on my window ledge. Visions runnin' through my head. Fields of indigo and red. I hear the words I cant forget. . And I remember what you said.
You hold onto hope. Shell change her mind. Come runnin back. Straight back to you. You hold onto the past. Wont set it free. You keep makin wishes. That just wont come true.
I water the flowers on my window ledge. Visions runnin through my head. Fields of indigo and red. I hear the words I cant forget. And I remember what you said.
