lyrics

Sharp-tongued words fell from her mouth:
“Save me…”

A lasting call from underwater:
“Take me… down around the town
To a time without a frown
In a certified, bonafide, chariot of God…”

The color red is deep in her evil way to sleep
An interval, spectacle, disappointment week

The things that she wants, I can’t give to her
My promise is all that I have now
How do I say to her angel-face:
“Now’s not the right time…”

I wish you could see how I love you.
I wish you could understand that…

-chorus-
For an age of the earth, I profess, I will keep you
Inside of my heart where your smiles can play
And light up my eyes until the day is right
Someday that day will be today.

Frightened in the corner is a world away
Melody plays in her face today
She’s waiting in a coma for the day
A great revolution

Take her down around the town
In a whirl winded gown
To the beautiful, sensual, purpose of your life
The candles burning down
With the fragrance all around
Of a wonderful, meaningful, flicker in the night

I wish you could finally believe me.
I wish you would trust in my feelings.

[chorus]
