Real Thing

REAL THING

Summer was the season of a rambling wind,
A desert smile, a gentle sin
You can hold it all together,
Blow it up again
Give me a love that's true,
Give me somewhere to begin...

I'll, I'll give you that real thing
I'll give you that lost look,
That simple offering
O I'll, I'll give you that sun sinking down
In the evening time
In the golden light

I'm swimming in this feeling
Don't give up on me,
Don't give up on me,
Don't give up on me
See it all shimmer fast
It is an endless sea
It is a silver moon
I'll love you endlessly

I'll, I'll give you that real thing
I'll give you that lost look,
That simple offering
O I'll, I'll give you that sun sinking down
In the evening time
In the golden light

We own the sun
We own the stars
Reminding us
Of who we are
And now they don't seem
So far—
A part of someone else's sky...
Everything we did back then was right...

Just a flashing of a smile
In the periphery
I don't have the words
But my spirit is free
Head up in the clouds,
I can see everything
I can see everything
I can see everything
