lyrics

Oh, my mind weaves
lost in day dreams
floating high above the trees
it's true, I still love you like I used to
but I'm not the man that I used to be

I've grown tired of peace and quiet
I've gone crazy cause I've seen it all
and all I need
is your voice to carry me
far away from this world below

Your canopy covers me tonight
Your haunting kisses on my cheek ignite
a fire so bright
it leads me back to you

I walked backwards, fumbling for my matches
trying to remember yesterday
when up blew a swift wind and got me back to thinkin
where it was that I went astray

Cause gone are the bright lights, brown eyes, dark nights
gone are the days of the curtain calls
a rolling breeze on calming seas
is what awaits me after all

Your canopy covers me tonight
Your haunting kisses on my cheek ignite
a fire so bright
it leads me back to you
