From the recording Closing Time
I want that crazy kind of love
The one that falls down from above
The one that surrounds and fills
The one that you can’t escape
I’m not asking for a lot
Just a lifetime that’s enough
So for once and no more let me get what I can keep
I have tasted bittersweet
I have known all the in between
I have drowned and I have staved in toxic love
Is it quiet and at peace?
Is it all it's never been?
Is it found in bars at closing time?
Is it chaos meets sublime?
Can it be heard in every line?
Does it all come down to a moment in time?
I have tasted bittersweet
I have known all the in between
I won’t drown, no I won’t stave in toxic love
Just come with the sun
I’ll know you by the softest touch
You’ll make my blood run home
And at the crest of this breaking wave
I’ll hope you’re feeling the same
Does time pass slow when they’re away?
Each departed moment like a day
Does every song you hear beat with the rhythm of another’s heart?
Are you eager and afraid?
And yet at home in every way
Are you lost and found and seen just as you are?
We have tasted bittersweet
We have known all the in between
But we won’t drown, no we won’t starve in toxic love
Just come with the sun
I’ll know you by the softest touch
You’ll make my blood run home
And at the crest of this breaking wave
I’ll hope you’re feeling the same
I’ll hope you’re feeling the same
