The sun came dancing on the rain, it set the earth shaking at my door. I’ll come out if you promise not to leave me. I’m already leaving everyone I know. Do you see with the eyes of the lover? Do your hands hold what others throw away? I have pressed my face into the earth. I’ve been waiting for a better day. I can’t remember ever waking upand I haven’t opened my eyes in days. Can you show me the way into heaven? Everybody knows you’ve found a way. Because you see with the eyes of the lover and your hands hold what others throw away. I have pressed my face into the earth.
I’ve been waiting for a better day. Every song I can sing I sing for love, but even now I wouldn’t recognize it’s face. And I promised I’d add my dying breath to the wind. I’d cast it out whispering your name. I pulled you through my storm. You countered with the North wind howling at my door. I said Bermuda had her turn and Lochness made a monster, but my soul. My soul it stirs. I’m waking up. Do you see with the eyes of the lover? Do your hands hold what others throw away? When you lay my body in the earth you’ll know I’m going to find a better day.
