"Show me how you do that trick
the one that makes me scream" she said
"the one that makes me laugh" she said
and threw her arms around my neck
"show me how you do it
and i promise you i promise that
i'll run away with you
i'll run away with you"
spinning on that dizzy edge
i kissed her face and kissed her head
and dreamed of all the different ways i had
to make her glow
"why are you so far away?" she said
"why won't you ever know that i'm in love with you
that i'm in love with you"
You
soft and only
you
lost and lonely
you
strange as angels
dancing in the deepest oceans
twisting in the water
you're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
i must have been asleep for days
and moving lips to breathe her name
i opened up my eyes
and found myself alone alone
alone above a raging sea
that stole the only girl i loved
and drowned her deep inside of me
You
soft and only
you
lost and lonely
you
just like heaven

I've been watching me fall for it seems like years watching me grow small, i watch me disappear slipping out my ordinary world, out my ordinary eyes yeah slipping out the ordinary me into someone else's life into someone else's life... There's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down and the neon bright tokyo lights flicker through the crowd i've been drifting around for hours and i'm lost and i'm tired when a whisper in my ear insatiable breathes "why don't you follow me inside?..." Yeah the room is small, the room is bright her hair is black, the bed is white and the night is always young is always young... always young the night is always young... Yeah i've been seeing them strip to the bone in the mirror on the wall seeing her swallow him whole like it's not me at all she holds out her hands and i follow her down to my knees and the sucking inside insatiable smiles "you will forget yourself in me..." Yeah the room is small, the room is bright her eyes are black, the bed is white and the night is always young and the night goes on and on and the night is always young and the night is never over and over and over and over and over... And this it's gone and this it's gone yeah then it's gone Yeah it's a cruel mean cold new day and outside the snow is still coming down and in the blood red tokyo bed i watch me coming round she pulled him down for hours deeper than i've ever been and as i fall in the mirror on the wall i'm watching me scream i'm watching me scream i'm watching me scream I'm watching me scream Yeah i've been watching me go for it must be years watching me get slow, i watch me disappear and one day, yeah i know, i won't come back at all... and always over and over in his ordinary eyes i'm watching me fall i'm watching me fall i'm watching me fall I'm watching me fall
