let go of something important
then hold it
while it weeps with gratitude
light a candle
you did it
Put your eyes over your hands and count up to the sky
Throw
your heart over your shoulder and march into love
Put your face
behind your secrets and let them finally see you
Put the war in
a drawer and giggle like a flower
Put your left foot in the
right and do the twist undone
Put the ending in the middle and
go back to the final
Then start again
Scream at the moon
with your ears
Let go of something important
Then hold it
while it weeps with gratitude
Light a candle
You did it
in a world so sad
she could make me
laugh
but I killed the joke
and then the joke fell flat
now
I'm alone again
For such a little thing
She could carry my pain
But I took
that back and I walked away
For such little hands oh
They
could hold my soul
But I took that back and I let her go
Now I’m alone again
Yeah, I’m alone again
I get to know
myself again
I get to be myself again
Again
Yeah ah yeah
Yeah ah yeah
For such little feet
They could dance around me
But the
music stopped and so did we
And in a world so sad
She could
make me laugh
But I killed the joke and then the joke fell flat
Now I’m alone again
Yeah, I’m alone again
I get to know
myself again
I get to be myself again
And again and again
and again
Yeah ah yeah
Yeah ah yeah
Yeah ah yeah
Yeah ah yeah
(Now what are you going to do? I don’t know, I guess anything I want to)
hey
I know I said so many pretty
things
if put to music angels ought to sing
but songs are
often born from make believe
and I made you sing the
melody
then I changed the key
we never saw the symphony
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey
I know I said so many pretty things
If put to music
angels ought to sing
But songs are often born from make

I remember you as I who I think you are
oh
how memories can run from scars
oh how so lonely is the world
now
without your song
and how entombed be the heart
when
broken
all I do is dream of you
Pull the skin over your eyes
Do you remember when I came into
this life
Do you remember when you whispered love into my
pain
All of your beauty and your secrets live in my blood
I
remember you as who I think you are
Oh how memories can run
from scars
Oh how lonely is the world now without your
song
And how entombed be the heart when broken
All I do is dream of you
All I do is dream of you
Set me free to feel okay
The broken glass inside my guts sweep
it away
But you just lay there hiding in the shadow of my
fears
But as you lay there do you know how much I love you
All I do is dream of you
All I do is dream of you
All I do
is dream of you
I’m dreaming of the time that we never had
I’d follow you
around I would hold your hand
I’d read all of the poems etched
upon your soul
I’d memorize the words never let them go
Why
did the angels take you home?
Why did the angels take you
home?
Was it the devil at your heels?
Is there a moment I
can steal?
Oh no yeah, I know
(He’s distant. I don’t remember being in his arms)
Yeah, I know
(I don’t remember conversations that we had. There’s one. He said don’t let anyone take your mind.)
All I do is dream of you
All I do is dream of you
All I do
is dream of you
All I do is dream of you
