Silhouettes - Swimming With Dolphins

We were painting silhouettes (la, la, la-la, la, lie) Shadows speck around the wall (la, la, la-la, la, lie) When the light came through the window (la, la, la-la, la, lie) It didn't make a change at all (la, la, la-la, la, lie) With though the color of the sun (la, la, la-la, la, lie) We meant the day, and it's beginning (la, la, la-la, la, lie) And it's starting to over-ripple (la, la, la-la, la, lie) Only surface of the ocean (la, la, la-la, la, lie) Drifting into the horizon (la, la, la-la, la, lie) In the silence that surrounds (la, la, la-la, la, lie) We were sinking into sunlight (la, la, la-la, la, lie) Softly lying on the ground (la, la, la-la, la, lie)

Praying that the pain stops Counting all the tear drops falling on your pillow Guess he hit a weak spot Heard it was a cheap shot, hate to say, "I told you so" Yeah, it's a joke How many hits till your sweet bones finally break?

Live to work, work to live No time left to spend or give Walking like a bureaucrat Talking like a diplomat Always look into their eyes Firm handshakes, quick replies Push the product, sell the crop Climb that ladder to the top But what if it's not meant for me? I can't stand the symmetry My head is stuck inside the clouds But I can see clearly now I'm trying to find the means To living more passionately 'Cause I'm not who I wanna be Buried in routines I don't care what happens to me I just gotta get free I am no proprietor Tell that to my dear father Taught me everything he knew About nothing that I wanna do Earned awards, honors, degrees I couldn't find myself in these So took my car keys and ID's And threw them in the ocean Now all of the world is laying Right before my eyes I wonder why the hell it took so long For me to recognize I'm trying to find the means To living more passionately 'Cause I'm not who I wanna be Buried in routines I don't care what happens to me I said, I am trying to find the means To living more passionately 'Cause I'm not who I wanna be Buried in routines I don't care what happens to me I just gotta get free I just gotta get free Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

I wasn't looking for things to do I wasn't looking for something new But that's when I found you That's when I found you You took my hand and we took it slow We fell together like flakes of snow On a blanket down below On a blanket down below And you said, "Does anything feel strange?" 'Cause you're like a perfect dream and I'm afraid to awake I'll lose it all somehow 'cause ever since you came I've been living in a holiday, a holiday So I dream a little more, dream a little more 'Cause I can't shake this feeling So tell me why did your feet get cold I know intentions are as good as gold Even good things just get old Even good things just get old I gotta know when to act real tough You never thought that I was good enough So I just kept giving up Yeah, we're always giving up Does anything feel strange? 'Cause you're like a perfect dream and I'm afraid to awake I'll lose it all somehow 'cause ever since you came I've been living in a holiday, a holiday, yeah, yeah, yeah So I'm standing at your door Tears falling like the rain And I'm calling out your name 'Cause I know you hear me Do you remember me? I'm the one you thought you could never leave Remember me? Yes, I'm the one you thought you could never leave Does anything feel strange? 'Cause you're like a perfect dream that I can't seem to escape I wanna lost it all somehow 'cause every since you came I've been living in a holiday, a holiday, yeah, yeah, yeah Now every flame just goes cold And all the summers fade No one that I hold can make me feel quite the same 'Cause ever since you came I've been living in a holiday, a holiday So I dream a little more, dream a little more 'Cause I can't shake this feeling

I bought a track jacket, some running shoes I had no pockets so I had nothing to lose Took a run from all my winter blues Till it was summer And every cul-de-sac and avenue Tried to turn my back then my ambitions grew It reminded me of the feelings I once knew When I was a lover Ooh, ooh, la da, da, da If we were lovers, if we were lovers I started feelin' bad, I thought of you All the plans you have are always fallin' through You really need someone you can run to To be your cover I really hope I change, I'll come back then And we'll try this all over again Till then I'll wonder how it could've been If we were lovers Ooh, ooh, la da, da, da If we were lovers, if we were lovers Ooh, ooh, la da, da, da If we were lovers, if we were lovers There is a time everything will find it's place in line But all my dreams get in the way, oh, oh, oh There is a time everything will find it's place in line But all my dreams get in the way Put on my track jacket, those running shoes I've got no pockets so I've got nothing to lose I'm gonna run from all my winter blues Until we're lovers Ooh, ooh, la da, da, da If we were lovers, if we were lovers Ooh, ooh, la da, da, da If we were lovers, if we were lovers
