Anomala

I’d love to tell you

What you want to hear

Crystal words, so clear

Something warm and dear

Like a candle

On a stormy night –

Shine a bit of light

Let you know it’s all okay

When all is done and said

But there’s nothing

When i dial the phone

And you’re never home

So i guess i’m prone

To go searching

Looking through the street

For the tracks of feet –

That always seem to roam

So far ahead.

Like shadows racing down the boulevard

The night is falling like a house of cards

The wind is howling at a lonely moon,

But the sun will come tomorrow just to shake away the gloom… again, oh my friend.

Perhaps the table

Is already set

And all your needs are met

But i’d place a bet

That the stories

I have heard are true

As they point to you

And they’re darker and more blue

Than the deepest sea

That turns and tosses like a funny dream

That churns and sloshes like a slot machine

But even like the waves above the bow

The world may try to drown you, but it never does, somehow.

Oh, no - it never does somehow.

Time flies by like a bird up in the sky -

Flits and flutters like a spy up on the wire.

Maybe it's true - all you've got to do

Is fight against the wind to make it higher.
