So Tonight That I Might See



Fade Into You
I want to hold the hand inside you.
I want to take the breath that's true.
I look to you, and I see nothing.
I look to you to see the truth.
You live your life. You go in shadows.
You'll come apart, and you'll go black.
Some kind of night into your darkness
colors your eyes with what's not there.
Fade into you.
Strange you never knew.
Fade into you.
I think it's strange you never knew.
The stranger's light comes on slowly.
A stranger's heart without a home.
You put your hands into your hair,
a million smiles cover your heart.
Fade into you.
Strange you never knew.
Fade into you.
I think it's strange you never knew.
Fade into you.
Strange you never knew.
Fade into you.
I think it's strange you never knew.
I think it's strange you never knew.




Bells Ring
Bells ring into the night.
Sounds like a mistress on her wedding night
Holds you thrown down together
and see the light that goes away.
Leave my heart down by the water.
He slips inside my soul.
It isn't true, but you follow.
Just hold me down by the water.
Look up to see the weakness in the sky.
Nobody's out to buy your story.
Nobody wants to know your reason why.
Hold your hands out toward the water
in front of me to know I'm with you.
Don't put it all into a hero
Look on if you believe.
Look on if you believe.
Look on if you believe.
Don't want to say that we're through with it
just want to be right by your side
right by your side.

Mary of Silence
Oh, Mary of Silence,
You prick my heart with a smile.
Oh, sweet Mary,
come inside for awhile.
Help me to get a hold of me.
Oh, I look in the night
I thought of myself beside you.
Take me into your skin.
Oh, sweet Mary of silence.
Oh, sweet Mary of silence.
We have a state of confusion,
though I look at it in fear,
it doesn't seem like the first time
you walked out on the highway.
Oh, sweet Mary of silence.
Oh, sleepy Mary of silence.
I looked up in the window
(?)
My last thoughts (?)
(?)
Oh, sweet Mary of silence.
Oh, sleepy Mary of silence.

Five String Serenade
This is my five string serenade
beneath the water we play
And while I'm playing for you,
it could be raining there, too.
This is my five string serenade.
Beneath the water we play,
and while I'm playing for you,
it could be raining there, too.
And on my easel I drew
while I was thinking of you.
And on the roof of my head
in came my five string serenade.
This is my five string serenade.
Beneath the water we play,
and while I'm playing for you,
it might be raining there, too.
And on my easel I drew
while I was thinking of you.
And on the roof of my head
in came my five string serenade
This is my five string serenade.
Beneath the water we play,
and though I'm playing for you,
it could be raining there, too.
This is my five string serenade.

Blue Light
There's a blue light in my best friend's room.
There's a blue light in his eyes.
There's a blue light. Yeah...
I want to see it shine.
There's a ship that sails by my window.
There's a ship that sails on by.
There's a world. Enjoy it.
I think I see it sailing away.
I think it's sailing, miles crashing me by,
crashing me by,
crashing me by.
There's a world outside my doorstep,
flames over everyone's heart.
Don't you see them shining?
I want to hear them beating for me.
I think I hear them, waves crashing me by,
crashing me by,
crashing me by.

She's My Baby
She's my baby. She belongs to me,
but yesterday, she walked home alone.
Everybody else looks at my baby.
Then they run over to me.
But baby's feelin' bad today.
She says she's thinkin' of goin' away.
And I'm cryin' when my body's flyin',
but I remember you.
She's my baby. Ain't that somethin'?
But I know that she belongs to you.
Yesterday was another day
when I saw your baby walkin' home alone.
I'm feelin' sorry I called you,
but I guess that I forgot your name.
But baby's feelin' bad today.
She says that she's thinkin' of goin' away.
But she's just like lightnin'.
She goes right through you.
Then you know you'll never be the same.
Now everybody else all around the corner
just to see your baby walkin' home.
She's my baby. Ain't that something?
But I know that she belongs to you.
She belongs to you.
