as i watch you flickering slowly
in the shadows nothing to hold
it's as if i don't recall our time before
and would it be so wrong
not to remember

there are times i look at you differently
like i've never seen you before
funny, after all we've done
you could be someone i don't know at all
i don't know you at all

catch me, i don't want to fall

but you pull the mountain from under me
look, i'm dangling up in the blue
and it's a cartoon kind of eternity
before i drop down to you
what am i supposed to do now

there is something beautiful shining
in the hollow knot of your head
funny, for a while it seemed to come from the sky
but it's in your head
yes it fills your head

you and i don't always fly
let me down, i want to fall
deep into the dark
but i'll come back to you

and i'll always know how to find you
'cause you shine like the midnight sun
