Kiss me once, then kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time Haven't felt like this, my dear Since can't remember when It's been a long, long time You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you Or just how empty they all seemed without you So kiss me once, kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time It's been a long, long time A long, long time You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you Or just how empty they all seemed without you So kiss me once, kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time

Kiss me once Then kiss me twice Then kiss me once again It's been a long, long time Haven't felt like this my dear Since can't remember when It's been a long, long time You'll never know How many dreams I dreamed about you (ooh-ooh, ooh) Or just how empty they all seemed without you So kiss me once Then kiss me twice Then kiss me once again It's been a long, long time

I know I've been gone a while, honey And things just might have changed But I've still got my love for you And I've still got this ring For forty long days, and forty long nights Lord, I've cried, these walkaway tears While I curse the miles that put you behind me And finally, brought me here It's been a long time My love, my friend But you're on my mind Like you've always been Every day You're not by my side Is killing me slowly It's been a long time In a bar full of strangers, for another damn dollar I've been breaking these hearts every night And covering wounds, that everyone sees And I couldn't hide if I tried For forty long days, and forty long nights Lord, I've tried to find my way home And wondering what, ever got me to leaving And what'll break these traveling bones It's been a long time My love, my friend But you're on my mind Like you've always been Every day You're not by my side Is killing me slowly It's been a long time So I'm headed back home It's been a long time

I'll never go to Hollywood I'll never be a star I'm washed up and my home is here Between the highway and the corner store But I'm home And it calls me every day In the pines I have time to feel In a past life I could fly But in this life my home is here And I'll never go to Tokyo I'll never run my own show And I'll never write my love songs Scratched out on the Berlin Wall But I'm home And it calls me every day In the pines I have time to feel In a past life I could fly But in this life my home is here In a past life I could fly But in this life my home is here And I'll never go to Hollywood I'll never be a star I'm washed up and my home is here Between the highway and the great blue sky

I put my trust In the washing today Out on the line I'll save a dime if I may be so bold Emphasize the self-belief And of course it won't rain See the sky now turn to grey Nothing measured nothing gained But it's still human nature to try I was not a superstitious person All of my life I saw it as a nervous excuse But since the rain came and washed my clothes away I've kept a strict routine See the sky now turn to grey Nothing measured nothing gained But it's still human nature to try

What's the shape of emptiness What greater force is lying in between the colours And it's in these spaces in between Ultraviolet frequency The numbers line up neatly in a row And through this mesh of consequence Through the myre of desire We grasp the reflection of a dim fluorescence And it's light, won't you colour my world Light, won't you colour my world Not every question has an answer Not every path is so fertile The electric eye gives us a sign While we're seeking truth within these spaces Where light can't shine but movement Breaks the stasis Breaks the stillness Come and fill my lines with grace Colour is all we are It's the greatest truth we have so far We are the colours rich and deep Across this spectrum wide And of all the colours I could choose I'd choose you everytime or loose this luminous grace And it's light, won't you colour my world Light, won't you colour my world Light, won't you colour my world Light, won't you colour my world

Lately I've been wondering where you are Lately I've been wondering where the time goes Lately I'm a seer with a lisp Telling all my friends about how they missed The colours of their youth From hollowed ground in one fell swoop No man is a mountain No rock face too steep No river is too deep To take the bridge back to me To take the bridge back to me Last night I peered through the clouds Pulling off the layers that kept me blind To who you really are Languid and calm But oh so strong No man is a mountain No rock face too steep No river is too deep To take the bridge back to me To take the bridge back to me So take the bridge back to me Take the bridge back to me
