Our love is dark thoughts As it is bright lights It's the sound of a teardrop Falling down from a great height So don't let go, let waters flow And babe

When it comes calling, will you heed the call? When it gets heavy, now, will you let it fall? And as the loon cries, it opens minds The stream reflects

Ooh, it's got me mystified, heavy now Deep down to my soul You try to keep the wheel steady now Easy as she goes I can hear on the wind A tale that needs

You feel the weight of the world on your shoulder As every day gets shorter and colder And hand in hand we walk through a land of fire The mountains bleed

The cinematic after effects of alcohol Have led me to believe That there's nothing more beautiful Than a face as it starts to fade From your memory What

When it comes calling, will you heed the call? When it gets heavy now, will you let it fall? And as the loon cries it opens minds The stream reflects

He was born in a small town And he was given every reason to stay Hallelujah, Mississippi, postcard living no sign of decay Till Vietnam moved next door

danced While the city slept Those were the nights to remember Now they're the nights to forget We sang from May to September and we danced While the city

Our love is dark thoughts as it is bright lights It's the sound of a teardrop falling down from a great height So don't let go, let waters flow And
