Heart

Time can take its toll on the best of us
Look at you you’re growing old so young
Traffic lights blink at you in the evening
Tilt your head and turn it to the sun
Sometimes the T.V. is like a lover
Singing softly as you fall asleep
You wake up in the morning and it’s still there
Adding up the things you’ll never be
Alright, I can say what you want me to
Alright, I can do all the things you do
Alright, I’ll make it all up for you
I’m still in love with you
I’m still in love with you
Time can take its toll on the best of us
Look at you you’re growing old so young
Traffic lights blink at you in the evening
You tilt your head and turn it to the setting sun
You disembark the latest flight from paradise
You almost turn your ankle on the snow
You fall back into where you started
Make up words to songs you used to know
So
The hard luck god
You never had a chance you know
Incurable romantics never do
He held the flame I wasn’t born to carry
I’ll leave the dying young stuff up to you
You get back on the latest flight to paradise
I found out, from a note taped to the door
I think I saw your airplane in the sky tonight
Through my window, lying on the kitchen floor
