Heaven knows I’ll find a way
To turn it upside down
And let it fall behind
Many miles upon the earth
The years have turned to gold
And wonder what it’s worth
To fall within your eyes of blue
To wander in, I never knew

To fall within your eyes of blue
To wander in, I never knew
Long enough to be with you
To fall within, what can I do
And gathering, I never knew
And would you wait upon the shore
The light is growing dim
Long enough to let me in

Long enough to let me in
Long enough to let me…

Nicotine is off the table.
