Tell Me, Tell Me

Tell me, tell me what you see

When you close your amber eyes

When the sparkle fades away

And what remains of you is just a child



Tell me, tell me what you miss

When you melt in my embrace

When your sky explodes so bright

And all the cracks within reveal themselves



You only are to me

What I can make of you

From day to day I chase

An ever changing view.



Tell me, tell me what it is

That you leave outside the door

When you come back late at night

Wearing touch - proof skin beneath your coat



You're a star I want to catch

You're a ship I want to sink

But I only pass you by

And when I get too close you disappear



So tell me, tell me, tell me
