I Need to Sing Lyrics

I can feel the strength of the melancholy
Whether wild or strange, there's really got to be
some kind of change around here
I have climbed to the top of the tallest houses
Just to stare and watch you girl
And the stars go sailing by
But long after the days of seasons and people
Would I still be in your devotion
I could say to myself it has been worth it all
If I only knew that I was still the king in your heart

Like a song that's looking for its words
Like a shadow that's begging for a soul
Like 20 birds searching for God
These are the things
I need to sing about
Life goes on and the path gets harder to find
But these are the hours and the steps
That lead us to a brand new place
Like the known that returns once more
To be known again
It seems you sow yourself way into love
But you never see a harvest

But that boy in me wants to chance that girl in you
Change my anguish into something I could bear
And every day with you would be a thing of wonder
Like when you're out to sea
The solid ground it looks so good
Like the weight of a whole year's thunder
Like the weariness that loves the ground
Or the friendship and the acceptance

These are the things
These are the things
I need to sing about
