I used to own a lot of words, I used to talk all day
But the more peace I find, the less I have to say
But I could talk to you all night and then tomorrow too
And when the quiet hour came we"d both be still
We don"t need to share a roof because we all share the sky
I may never know your body but you"ve touched my mind
And the night will be young, and I will sit by your side
We"ll go absolutely nowhere, mile after mile
I"ve been walking "round this town for hours studying the sea
The gift shops are closed but I can still hear wind chimes ringing
If it"s all a magic show, if life is a dream here
Then let"s practice for the final act where we make each other disappear
And the night will be young ...
May desire be my teacher, may my heart always be wise
May I find you, may you find me, in all our other lives
I will meet you where the joy lives that no body can contain
If you move toward me, if only with your mind, I"ll invite you in
Today I swam over the coral and I opened up my eyes
Saw all the starfish down there holding on so tight
So I opened up my fingers and let the water through
And that"s when I remembered being held by you
We"ll go absolutely nowhere, mile after mile
I used to own a lot of words, I used to talk all day
But the more peace I find the less I have to say
But the more peace I find, the less I have to say
But I could talk to you all night and then tomorrow too
And when the quiet hour came we"d both be still
We don"t need to share a roof because we all share the sky
I may never know your body but you"ve touched my mind
And the night will be young, and I will sit by your side
We"ll go absolutely nowhere, mile after mile
