Dakota

Light shines off rivers flowing through
Every part of me
Wanting every part you

Soft and simple veins make a stain
Or find a dream
If I was the one, maybe I could feel your pain

And the water boils while the night is on fire
I patiently wait like a bird on a wire

Your dreams are made of fear while sleep surrounds us
Tunnels changing lanes oh summarize your pain inside a school bus

Summer fall, October ends
Shadows, odds and ends
Winter won't pretend
Oh I know I'll see you again

The wind blows you and me
Catching teardrops in the leaves
Oh I don't believe that every night I feel you breathe

And the tension boils like sailors close to home
Time is black, but you assume I'll be alone

Fate does tempt itself a game of cat and mouse
It soon will find us

And anything we need
God knows the devil could precede
In denying us
