Flash in your Eyes

Once, we lit a candle in the

Cold dark street

And hoped the world would one day

Burst into flame

We spilled a cup of water there

In the desert heat

And dreamed the earth was drenched

In the grace of that sweet rain

Now you're the catch in my throat

Was I in your dream of last goodbyes?

Now you're the thorn in my heart

Was I a flash in your eyes?

Once, we pulled some angels from

Our magic hats

Then we danced with them along

The scenic routes

Here is the dreamroom where we

Left our tracks

And dared to imagine what it

All was all about

And cohen was singing

"if it be your will"

And we heard him singing

"if it be your will"

Once, we painted pictures most the

World would never see

And hung them up on nails that held

God's feet and hands

We built a playhouse

In a fallen tree,

That you'd be first to leave

Was never in our plans

Feels like the late great's

Around us here (repeat)
