Roamed along the riverside
Raging tide of low beams flowed a
Thousand feet underneath me
Waves that crash of blood and light
The good, the bad return to grass
The sun will rise with want of meaning
I know those stained and callused
Hands from painted tombs
Eyes sparked then flickered light and
Stole the oxygen right out of the room
When you smiled
The world grew dim
Here I am again, trapped in the
Amber of this moment with you
With you
And I must admit I wouldn't have it
Any other way
When you smiled
The world grew dim
The ebb and flows of ancient times
Man will spend his life adrift
For iron fists and siren hymns that won't complete me
City lights and anxious pride
Many nights I lied and wished for simpler times
With whippoorwills and sparrows greeting
I know those stained and callused
Hands from painted tombs
Eyes sparked then flickered light and
Stole the oxygen right out of the room
When you smiled
The world grew dim
Here I am again, trapped in the
Amber of this moment with you
With you
And I must admit I wouldn't have it
Any other way
When you smiled
The world grew dim
The me you see right now is more than fine
He won't wring his hands for ships that once sailed by
All my life I've fled this midnight tide
And it's fables of new life
I know those stained and callused
Hands from painted tombs
Eyes sparked then flickered light and
Stole the oxygen right out of the room
When you smiled
The world grew dim
Here I am again, trapped in the
Amber of this moment with you
With you
And I must admit I wouldn't have it
Any other way
When you smiled
The world grew dim
