Daily Lyrics

I couldn’t talk to you
Let you know my secrets
You wouldn’t listen anyway
Too caught up playing games
When I look at you now
All I see is weakness
You won’t help yourself
It’s too late in the day
I’ll leave the window open
Let the sweet breeze brush your skin
You can see the mountain
Climbed it many times before
You can do it once more
I told you all about the boys
How they’re doing and getting on
I caught you when you smiled
You winked goodbye like in the song
I’ll put some music on
Violins in three four time
Summer in the lowlands
Dancing in the aisle

It’s my holiday
Time for me alone
Do whatever I like
Talk to god and run
Through the streets nice
Breath the warm air in
Look up above my head
Beauty in each step
I might think of you
Wish you were here
Send a postcard with kisses
A picture of the beach
Read the book you gave me
Some sustenance for the soul
Take a day trip to the hills
Buy keepsakes in the town
Sit underneath the Plain trees
Watch old guys in the square
Pétanque and chess forever
A cool drink in the shade
I’ll lay my head to rest
The pillow case so crisp
Thankful for the moments
Today I am complete

A story for the ages
I’d tell you if I had one
We are just passing through
Waving at ourselves every day
Inside the holy pages
We all walk under the same sun
You know me I know you
We are just passing through

I can’t read the signs
The world gets on with living
People in the water
And they’re sending cars to space
Where’s the love
The common people singing
We used to help each other
We used to live with grace
Getting bigger growing
I can’t read the signs
Water’s still flowing
I can’t tell the time
It’s cool down on the beach
Feels like 25
I’m watching from the shade
Keep the summer stay alive
Watch the sun set from the balcony
Drink the air and taste the night
Tomorrow we go dancing
Down the steps into the light

I want to be here now
I’m gonna to make a vow
I won’t bow down
I won’t bow down
I used to be a servant
Do whatever you would say
So afraid of everyone
Waiting to be played
Now I’ve been watching
And I’ve listened to your words
You’re nothing more than human
We are just the same
Don’t put me down
Don’t push me around
I’m not your clown
I was lost now I am found
I’ll tell you what you want to hear
Just to keep you on-side
Then you can live without fear
Ignorance is bliss sometimes
No news is good news
So turn off your device
Go outside into the light
Watch the birds in the trees taking flight
