you, oh you, you you a year passes by and i stand a little taller now i smile so much brighter it’s crazy how… i think back to a quiver in my chest you put every fable to the test a la-la-land of you and me when i lift my head from the bed did you know that i needed you and did you know that i helped myself through the lonely nights and tears shed, confusion from the words you never said every love reminds and every trust blindsides the dreamers, and the empty-handed every love describes and every trust derives from the weary lovers, God wears his disguise I feel him close behind my eyes He kisses me good night, and he sings me lullabies… (like a father does, like my father would) God wears his disguise I feel him close behind my eyes He kisses me good night, and he sings me lullabies… amen you, ohh you, you, you you are far away and yet i know you somewhere on a rainy street you’ll take me out to eat and we’ll watch the ducks play like children in the street but that’s just you and me singing the world’s song and we’re out of tune what a crazy thing, it’s still so maddening…to be alive now i can share my heart i loved you from the start you’re something of a friend and that’s how friendships tend to end, with tears shed, confusion ‘cause of all the things i said please just forget every love reminds and every trust blindsides the dreamers, and the empty-handed every love describes and every trust derives from the weary lovers, God wears his disguise I feel him close behind my eyes He kisses me good night, and he sings me lullabies… [background echo: (it’s a—wonder of a life, wonder of a life) (it’s a—wonder of a life, wonder of a life) (spoke with you the once, etched inside my mind) (“i now pronounce you two, a husband and a wife”) (it’s a—wonder of a life, wonder of a life) (it’s a—wonder of a life, wonder of a life) (spoke with you the once, etched inside my mind) (“i now pronounce you two, a husband and a wife”)] every love reminds and every trust blindsides the dreamers, and the empty-handed every love describes and every trust derives from the weary lovers, God wears his disguise I feel him close behind my eyes He kisses me good night, and he sings me lullabies… (like a father does, like my father would) God wears his disguise I feel him close behind my eyes He kisses me good night, and he sings me lullabies… amen
