Could you explain to a simple man Why you always have to back away When something in your eyes Is asking me to make you stay Let's say we're lost in a sudden storm And settle down into the night We're still a universe away But it's alright When we connect with a lightning look It's frightening strong I can almost feel us falling Love is awake and it says We're circling far too long Get off that air of mystery Reach down into your silence And astonish me Astonish me Get off that forlorn majesty Come down into this current And astonish me Astonish me
