Looking that way
With a crack in your smile
Every day
Looking like this
With a thousand years of love
On your lips
How’d you catch a cold
Chiseled perfect and bold
Stare a mile
How’d you get so old
Could’ve swore that you told
Me good moooooorning
Good morning
Good morning
That’s the first time that you told me-
In your eyes it shined
I looked out the window
And I saw it
Terrified
That was when I looked back and saw ya
And I realized what you’d been through
Show me your cool side
Know what I had to do
Showed me your cool side
Burn it now I feel alive
Looking at you
It reminds me of two
Lovely mornings
Looking right through
Past the stars and the moon
At the warning
First one was the time
I first looked in your eyes
I saw nothin’
Then a little while
Little tired but fine
When I saaaaaaw you
When I saw you
When I saw you
That’s the first time that you told me-
In your eyes it shined
I looked out the window
And I saw it
Terrified
That was when I looked back and saw ya
And I realized what you’d been through
Show me your cool side
Know what I had to do
Showed me your cool side
Burn it now I feel alive
That’s the first time that I saw you
In your eyes it shined
I looked out the window
And I saw it
Terrified
That was when I looked back and saw ya
And I realized what you’d been through
Show me your cool side
Knew what I had to do
Showed me your cool side
Burn it now I feel alive

Elli and her broken bow
Got a little love
From the hitchhike ghost
Calling out to ANGEL1
Gotta turn around
For the spacetime coast
Elli and her needle nose
Needs another dress
Turned escape hatch boat
Burning out the rest so slow
Needle in the hay
Little vessel broke
She don’t need to hide
Running out of time
You told me either or
You’re running out the door
Summer shine
What’dyou expect it for
You’re pushing on the floor
Take your time
Elli in the undertow
Got a little love
From the frequence ghost
Calling out to anyone
Turn around again
Burn the heat sink most
Elli in her broken coat
Got a pretty hat
Blow the airlock go
Need a little time to grow
Throw the dice again
Make your black eyes roll
She don’t need to hide
Running out of time
You told me either or
You’re running out the door
Summer shine
What’dyou expect it for
You’re pushing on the floor
Take your time
She don’t need to hide
Running out of time
Cover up outside
Spinning in the light
Elli never felt so slow
Got a broken piece
Of the sunshine ghost
Calling up the only one
Twirling through the night
By the planets’ host
Elli almost broke the flow
Boots are surely fried
By the engine glow
Doubt she’s gonna be alone
Worried ‘bout the odds
Cuz the call was close
She don’t need to hide
Running out of time
You told me either or
You’re running out the door
Summer shine
What’dyou expect it for
You’re pushing on the floor
Take your time

Night time
A place for us to boogie
Straight line
From now to where we’re going
But don’t fall
For what you’re lying eyes tell you
Sun light
Is just around the corner
Take my
My hand and bring me to her
But she tries
To hide from everyone like you...
...Just about to call you but I’m
Running away from
Everything you showed me
Got me stumblin’ out of the
Room is getting hotter
Showing anything but the truth
It tells
I don’t have to tell ya that your
Running away from
Youth is everywhere and
Looking right at you here’s the
Proof is getting brighter
And it’s harder to shake for you
It tells
Sun rise
I don’t what I’m doin’
Day time
Hits harder than I knew it
I won’t fail
Again no matter what this time
High Noon
I’m coming down from morning
Oh my
He’s running from the building
I’m alright
I try to tell her but she sighs...
Sun set
But inside are we hiding
Daylight
It’s fading down to nothing
About time
You tell me not to waste it all
Night sky
Is blurry by the city
Don’t try
To see it’s such a pity
But one time
You’ll stumble onto what is right...

The turn of the earth
Won’t turn you back
It needs to be found
Effects of your breath
Don’t burn the trees
All burned to the ground
The measures of East
A judgement call
They measure the town
All that goes up
Swirls around and around and around
And comes crashing down...
...There you were
In a fire frame
Wrapped around
There and back again
Turn the world
Got a sky to blame
Bend a limb
Send me down the range, down the range
Don’t hold me back
Like an arrow
Cuz you thought I need to be
Held down
Skip the town like the breeze
You grew up around
Tell me why there’s a light
Pointed at the ground
There’s no reason to hide
Alone in the night
Alone again
You need to be sure
The trees hide the light
Of the starry sky
A lone star you are
The rest swirl around
In bended lines
But you rest assured
The spaces between
Fill the emptiness the emptiness the emptiness
It comes crashing down...

It’s been a long time
It’s been such a long time
Since you went away
And when you dropped your bags
When you told me
You were never comin back
It was so hard to believe
It was hard to see
Just how you’d stay
That was so long ago
Now it seems you float
Way above it all
You don’t even see
How it works
How im staying afloat
Far above the world
Calling it a joke
They’re watching us
You don’t even know
How it works
How you’re staying afloat
Far above
Keeping up on Altaluna love
It’s about time
It’s always been about
Going slow
And when I saw your face
It was always gonna
go this way
But it was just so hard to believe
It was so very hard
to see
Not so long ago
I laughed when you told me
When you told me

I know this must be hard for you
I know how you get by dreaming ‘bout
Tomorrow
See your name in lights
Shining bright
You know just what I have to do
You know I need to get by dreaming ‘bout
The real you
Scratch your name inside
May and the light from the moon
My' I gotta tell ya
Been thinking bout tomorrow
One last dance with you
‘Fore we say goodbye
Tomorrow..
Tomorrow...
Life it got so hard on you
Least it got you out here dreaming bout
Tomorrow
Sign on the dotted line
Seemed so black and white
Holding all my breath for you
Breath a little life Dreaming ‘bout
Your attitude
Cut through my heart with your eyes
May and the light from the moon
My' I gotta tell ya
Been thinking bout tomorrow
One last dance with you
‘Fore we say goodbye
Tomorrow..
Tomorrow...
