I fall outside of her She doesn't notice I fall outside of her She doesn't notice at all And mine is an empty bed I think she's forgotten And mine is an empty bed She's forgotten, I know Put the brakes on, put the brakes on 'Cause I'm fading fast Can't find the link between me and her He who was first's coming in last I fall outside of her And the trouble is there's no telling Just who's right or who's wrong Don't tell me that love is all there is I know, don't I? Don't crowd me, pappy Got too much to think about The game's not lost if I say it's not And it's not Give me one more chance to do things right Don't crowd me, pappy Got too much to think about There's no talking to her, talking to her I'll keep my thoughts to myself Unless I'm asked Like blemishes upon the skin Truth sets in Life's for the taking, so they say Take it away I fall outside of her She doesn't notice She doesn't notice at all And mine is an empty bed I think she's forgotten All is bloated and far from truth Let's secure that reputation Place the dummy upon the roof Stitch him a tongue, give him proof Don't tell him love is all there is I know, I know Just pull the wool down over his eyes One more time Her heart's a foreign place I visited for a while And although I tried to please her She came at night and stole my visa Come away now, run away now, little man You'll not make sense of it Try as you might to understand Like blemishes upon the skin Truth sets in

I hear your voice Way down inside A whispering sea Of towering trees But no reply A silence so rare And more than I can stand Sweeps like a flood Through life's flesh and blood And steals away with it's heart If I'm losing you Then there's nothing more that I can say The fighting is on And battles are won Or thrown away But if I could live Safe and sound In God given fields Or mountains of steel Then here I'd stay Till you'd gone Guilty of stealing Every thought I own I will take my turn To fight the bullfight Every word's sunk in deep Like the blades of a knife through my heart But my strength will return To fight the bullfight As time's come to show I'm told nothing more than I should know A ship on the sea that threatens to leave But never goes This island of blue Where life clings to your hands Like water and sand Will loose it's way When you're gone When all's forgiven Still every fault's my own I will take my turn To fight the bullfight Say a prayer for my release When every hope in the world is asleep And my strength will return To fight the bullfight

I see your eyes light up like fire It's medicine to me But as the hunted live their lives You're keeping out of reach So I keep running, falling Till I reach the water Run with me holyman But when I reach out I find I'm standing right beside her Now we're living Blessed with all the thunder in the world Now, should you ask me to come home To wake up from the sleep Like a boat inside a storm Is there no hope for me? So I keep running, falling Wade into the water Run with me riverman But when I reach out I find I'm standing right beside her Now we're living Blessed with all the thunder in the world
