Two weeks away it feels like the whole world should've changed

But I'm home now

And things still

Speeches won't be made today, clocks will carry on

Flowers won't be left in parks, work will still be done

People

If you're feeling low and lost today

You're probably doing too much again

You spend all your hours just rushing around

Do you have a little time

Do you have

Let's pretend that we'll be here tomorrow

And I'll try for you to be a little more on time

I know you need

My lover's gone

his boots no longer by my door

he left at dawn

and as I slept I felt him go

Returns

I found no peace

In the lies that I've told,

I'm only hurt by the blows that get withheld

The sharper

From behind these walls I hear your song

Oh, sweet words

The music that you play lights up my world

The sweetest that I've heard

Could it be that I've been touched

"I have returned to the northern skies"

I have returned to the northern skies,

Where the summer had not touched

The clouds that pass above.

Oh, and I have

If I had the chance for just one day with you

One day release from here and all that you go through

Well I'd get you dressed and I'd get you out

And I know

I'd like to watch you sleep at night

to hear you breathe by my side

And though sleep leaves me behind

there's nowhere
