hi, it’s been a long way home i’ve seen the light i’ve seen your dark eyes too if you want me to close mine let me do hi, i’ve walked through ancient lines i’ve seen your mind i’d paint it all in blue if you want me to close mine watch me do tie your hair to my skyline we’ll walk through time we’ll break it all in two we’ll paint it all in blue

tip toeing in while i tiptoe out what streets you’re taking echoeing in, echoeing out the space invading you’re giving me so much with these tiny moves of yours everytime you touch the wall with these delicate hands of yours of yours you gather from the citylights the beat you’re living on i could stand there and watch you all night only keeping on you’re giving me so much with these tiny moves of yours everytime you touch the wall with your delicate hands of yours you make them windows you make them windows when i go in circles each time i am amazed you hold the keys to the end of the maze you make them windows

Mary 06:26
mary, mary was a child once, mary mary, mary had fair eyes once and they were too big for her but they, but they, but they closed once but they, but they closed, once mary, mary was, mary was, mary was a child for all i know, she could still see the red flames burning through the screen for all i know she could still feel the coal between her fingertips, crumbling mary, mary was, mary was, mary was a child and she shall never see again for an eyelid is enough of an open gate and a hand enough to feel the pain she shall never see again for the naked truth is always easier to bear with rain smothering the flames i’ll keep on smothering the flames after you i’ll keep on smothering the flames after you one two three four, & when you set the house on fire, you leave our chests to heave, our hearts to bleed, our homes to burn ; the way you let them burn and get away with it i’ll keep on smothering the flames after you i’ll keep on smothering the flames after you one two three four, & when you leave me in the corner, you use our tired faces, our broken voices, our dust to ashes ah, ah

ils sont tous là l’matin dans l’tintamarre de l’aube pêcheurs et mouettes, marins c’est toute une foule qui fraude combien sont-ils ici combien sont illicites ils partent pour aujourd’hui avec leur coque qui gîte et demain, quoi ? est-ce qu’ils vont revenir est-ce qu’on les reverra c’est pas l’moment d’mourir crowds, they make my world, oh crowds, they fill my world as they fill my house crowds, i see them swirling, oh crowds, i see them dancing, oh and i i'm standing there i'm standing still and i i’m standing there i’m standing still i’m on your way au bar t’étais mon pote rencontré dans la bière tu pars et je sanglote reviens ou j’f’rai pas l’fier j’vous vois bateaux, et puis des points tout au bout de mes doigts en pointillés distincts bande de traits d’union imposteurs de l’azur imitateurs d’alcyons y a une chose qui est sûre vous r’viendrez crowds, they suffocate me crowds, i cannot breathe too many people, too much noise crowds, how do i tell you that i’m there too and i i'm standing there i'm standing still and i i'm standing there i'm standing still i’m on your way crowds, i see you leaving and i i wanna shout you all to come back get the hell back here revenez depuis l’enfer des pôles i wanna shout you all to come back get the hell back here revenez on ouvre à la même heure i wanna shout you all to come back get the hell back here pour remplir le café et laver les futurs les corps le sel les lendemains cornés et la couleur du ciel

c’est l’hiver entre les douces lueurs nordiques perchée sur les épaules de ce grand voilier la fumée de la cheminée se mêle à celle qui se forme devant ma bouche quand je respire tu viens de pointer le bout de ton nez pour vérifier que tout va bien et tu m’a proposé ton manteau, à porter par dessus mon vieux pull i guess i must have been feeling pretty cold less than five minutes ago but skin and brains are what they are and i forgot what cold feels like & i’m feeling so good it’s like i could stay here forever nevermind the snow nevermind the cold warmth is in people’s hearts and eyes up here and when the sun is up it shines so completely on everyone’s face i’ve never felt more at home eyes hooked on the horizon it looks like i’m contemplating but ego and brains are what they are and i i’m concentrating hard on where the sweater ends and where the coat begins but i don’t have a clue cause skin don’t reach out there & i’m feeling so good it’s like i could stay like this forever nevermind the snow nevermind the cold warmth is in people’s hearts and eyes up here and when the sun is up it shines so completely on everyone’s face i’ve never felt more at home haven’t had enough of it but i’ve got to deal with it the time’s gotta come but don’t you worry i’ll be back don’t you worry i’ll be back my sweet, sweet citylights i'll be back
