We parked the car in a vacant lot
And lay beneath the collapsing stars
Afraid to say what was in my mind
On the waterfront
Blood cells rushing to my brain
Check it out, my acting's strained
Can't even look you in the face
This is not like me
And I want you to know
I don't want you to go
I feel untied when I'm with you
And I wanted to say
That I want you to stay
I feel alive just being with you
Like a solar storm in the heavenlies
A world war going on in me
And you swallowed the light
You swallowed the light
It drew me to you
Like a solar storm reaching down to me
A civil war in the heavenlies
And I followed the signs
I followed the signs
They brought me to you
The moon's on fire
The roaring lunar seas
Our rival worlds in a sacred hush
Let the love you hold inside
Flow out to me
I'm so tired of my own speak
These frozen words at my command
My heartbeat reaching unfamiliar speeds
This is not like me
And I want you to know
I don't want you to go
I feel untied when I'm with you
And I wanted to say
That I want you to stay
I feel alive just being with you
Like a solar storm in the heavenlies
A world war going on in me
And you swallowed the light
You swallowed the light
It drew me to you
Like a solar storm reaching down to me
A civil war in the heavenlies
And I followed the signs
I followed the signs
They brought me to you
It brought me to you...
It brought me to you...
