As the Blue Sky Faded to Black (feat. Conny) - BVRRN & District 13

In the calling out to one another Of the lovers up and down the strand In the sound of the waves and the cries Of the seagulls circling the sand In the fragments of the songs Carried down the wind from some radio In the murmuring of the city in the distance Ominous and low I hear the sound of a world where we played And the far too simple beauty Of the promises we made If you ever need holding Call my name and I'll be there If you ever need holding And no holding back, I'll see you through Sky blue and black Where the touch of the lover ends And the soul of the friend begins There's a need to be separate and a need to be one And a struggle neither wins Where you gave me the world I was in And a place I could make a stand I could never see how you doubted me When I'd let go of your hand Yeah, and I was much younger then And I must have thought that I would know If things were gonna end And the heavens were rolling Like a wheel on a track And our sky was unfolding And it'll never fold back Sky blue and black And I'd have fought the world for you (I'd have fought the world for you) If I thought that you wanted me too (thought that you wanted me too) Or put aside what was true or untrue (true or untrue) If I'd known that's what you needed (if I'd known that's what you need) What you needed me to do But the moment has passed by me now To have put away my pride And just come through for you somehow If you ever need holding Call my name and I'll be there If you ever need holding And no holding back, I'll see you through (sky) You're the color of the sky Reflected in each store-front window pane You're the whispering and the sighing Of my tires in the rain You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost In everything I do Yeah and I'll never stop looking for you In the sunlight and the shadows And the faces on the avenue That's the way love is That's the way love is That's the way love is Sky, sky blue and black

I always knew a missing piece Was waiting in the dark Like a quiet melody But if I listened hard I could hear the sound Rising from the ground Every moment until now I was dying to change from a spark to a flame I want fire, fire It burns bright I'm fighting to reach it But the higher, higher That I fly, I'm falling to pieces inside Even when it's hot, even when it's hot Never gonna quit, never gonna stop Fire, fire Tonight I'm lighting up the black sky On the edge of giving up Letting go tonight But I have waited long enough When I close my eyes I can hear the sound Rising from the ground I want to let it out 'Cause I'm starting to change from a spark to a flame I want fire, fire It burns bright I'm fighting to reach it But the higher, higher That I fly, I'm falling to pieces inside Even when it's hot, even when it's hot Never gonna quit, never gonna stop Fire, fire Tonight I'm lighting up the black sky Oh, I can feel it burn, burn, burn But I won't go back again Oh, I can feel it burn, burn, burn But I won't go back again Fire, fire It burns bright I'm fighting to reach it But the higher, higher That I fly, I'm falling to pieces inside I want fire, fire It burns bright I'm fighting to reach it But the higher, higher That I fly, I'm galling to pieces inside Even when it's hot, even when it's hot Never gonna quit, never gonna stop Fire, fire Tonight I'm lighting up the black sky
