Breathless - Monkey Talk lyrics

For the second time tonight Hearing the voice of the sand Winding through a small sit around We'll feel alright We'll live around Twist round. Touch the ground Can't you play? And oh, we eat much more than you Blow kisses to the old and the blue Life lies sweet And oh, we eat much more than you Remote from the world Two days from eden Hold on like I do Close your eyes And simply smile through This town, this home It never alters Those hollow faces That tempt our tired souls In times I've known I've been taken in and led nowhere Nowhere short of cold When will I be told? (And) I never ever, ever never Wanted more from you I never ever, ever never Expected more from you I wait for the day When you will be So far away They take us for granted And leave us lamenting Feeling like I do Holding out for you I never ever, ever never Wanted more from you I never ever, ever never Expected more from you We're full of praise Dry eyed and fighting Eyes open wide We can't feel the stones, no Feeling like I do; holding out for you They take us for granted Leave us lamenting (And) I can't bear to see you I can't bear to look at you My eyes are dry My heart is hardened The stones are dust to me Release is so close at hand Watching now, reaching now Take this hand Christ knows I try Not suffering tonight Voluntary force What I want is mercy Not sacrifice Freedom while we wept oh no I'll wait for now Release is close at hand Take this hand
