Just like you

"show me show me show me
how you do that trick
the one that makes me scream" she said
"the one that makes me laugh" she said
& trend her arms around my neck
"show me how you do it
& I promise that I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"


spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face & kissed her head
& dreamed of all the different ways I had
to make her glow
"why are you so far away?" she said
but won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
that I'm in love with you


YOU
soft & only
YOU
lost & lonely
YOU
strange as angels
dancing in the deepest oceans
twisting in the water
you're just like a dream...
you're just like a dream...


daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
& moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
& found myself alone, alone, alone above a raging sea that stole the only girl I loved & drowned her inside of me


YOU
soft & only
YOU
lost & lonely
YOU
just like heaven
