She lays on the wall
watching the strangers drift away
mid-day`s ore--thick
with the sun of Arabia
she surrenders her voices
they gather, on the wind
talkin, chanting, breathing
into her body...yesterday
Awakened beside
the scent of burnt sugar--on the skin
painting eyes--thick
with the color she brings in
oh, and sure and strong
when the lightning tumbles down
don`t you frown
everything will be
in time for this evening
if there`s secrets
she has to be pardoned to
every one of them
if there`s heaven
she gets to the heart
and you`ll know...
why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
now let me run... (let me run)
--synthwash/piano interlude--
if there`s secrets
she has to be pardoned to
every one of them
if there`s heaven
she gets to the heart
and you`ll know...
why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
now let me run... (let me run)
Hey-hey....
why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
then I will run to you
(repeat to fade)
