People wander through this world without a single
Thought that’s true.
But they never had a chance to see that
All they needed was a glimpse of something that I’ve
Seen in you.
Then they’d never have to wonder why the sky is blue
Once upon a time we sat and plotted crimes from
Dusk till dawn,
But they never could compare to all the
Twists of fate which kept us stumbling through a maze
Still being drawn.
While we fought against conclusions that were long forgone.
I had a thought for no one’s but your ears:
That you were beautiful, well beyond your years.
But though we’ve kept the old, high ways of love,
Someday I won’t be there for you to take hold of…
Seems you’re always trapped between the devil and the
Deep blue sea.
But you never hesitate to show me
How it doesn’t mean a thing unless I try to set you free
Even if it’s only for the company…
I had a thought for no one’s but your ears:
That you were beautiful, well beyond your years.
But though we’ve kept the old, high ways of love,
Someday I won’t be there for you to take hold of…
So keep this close; don’t ever let it from your side,
And when you’re lost then let this moment be your guide.
I had a thought for no one’s but your ears:
That you were beautiful, well beyond your years.
