lyrics

her heartbeat pressed against my feet
it beats and sings a pretty song
so delicate i’m unprepared
and scared of coming on too strong
but then she takes my hand
kisses my heart
suddenly i’m gone
we’re not alone and
I’m just happy that you’re here

see i was scared for most my teenage years
i’d sink and fade away
i couldn’t find myself
was lost in hell
and didn’t know the way
then hope returned to me
and took me in
i found the pot of gold
and now i walk along
the glowing path
of galatea’s bow

i’m all prepared
and i’m all set
for the unexpected trek
the purple train has left
where i’m making my bed
past the overgrown gardens
of the castles on the hill
the blue flower that i pick
next to the rosy mill
so gently
not worried
that people
don’t get me
i’ll be me and
you’ll be you
we’ll both wonder bout the truth

her heartbeat pressed against my feet
it beats and sings a pretty song
so delicate i’m unprepared
and scared that i still don’t belong
but then she takes my hand
kisses my heart
suddenly i’m here
we’re not alone and
i’m just happy
that you’re near

we’re not alone and
i’m just happy
that you’re near
