(John Waite/Phil Galdston)
|
I wake up in the planet's dawn
|
To find you here beside me
|
Through the blinds the bands of light
|
Throw circles round your hair
|
The passion of the here and now
|
The sweet taste of the coming
|
On your lips and in my heart
|
So naked and so honest
|
|
Children laughing in the street
|
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
|
Flowers bursting through concrete
|
And everything keeps turning
|
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
|
But gravity will take us all
|
Tomorrow dips away
|
This moment's where I'll stay
|
This love is mine today
|
Today
|
|
Let me tell you something about myself
|
And I don't talk too easily
|
That scented room on the nineteenth floor
|
Short stories on chordless phones
|
I quit smoking but drink too much
|
Don't try and analyse me
|
Found a smile inside my life
|
Now nothing feels so frightening
|
|
Children laughing in the street
|
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
|
Flowers bursting through concrete
|
And everything keeps turning
|
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
|
But gravity will take us all
|
Tomorrow dips away
|
This moment's where I'll stay
|
This love is mine today
|
|
This is love is mine today
|
|
And down on the darkest street
|
The day is waiting to begin
|
So draw back the curtains now
|
And let the love come rushing in
|
|
Children laughing in the street
|
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
|
Flowers bursting through concrete
|
And everything keeps turning
|
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
|
But gravity will take us all
|
Tomorrow dips away
|
This moment will not fade
|
This moment's where I'll stay
|
This love is mine today
|
