It started to feel like everything was different
Held myself up to the light, but wound up losing interest

I'm not the one you told me I could be
So I'll keep searching for you endlessly
Until I fall right through the floor again

I really hope that someday I will see you there
The golden palace floating in the air
I really wish that someday you'll say
The trick in life is not to rush
You'll feel so light weighed down by love

You always kept your promise
Picked up the phone when I was calling
To tell you something that
You knew I would find alarming
You always made it seem so charming
To drink all night until the Sun comes up

And when I saw you sleeping soundly
I loved you so profoundly
That I never thought I'd have to give you up

I really hope that someday I will see you there
The golden palace floating in the air
I really wish that someday you'll say
The trick in life is not to rush
You'll feel so light weighed down by love

Far away
(I'll keep on searching for something
That tells me you found me, that I'm not alone)
And one day
(The clouds will look black, and hardly
I'll hear you say proudly: It's time to come home)

My daughter, sunset

On the back of your motorcycle
You told me to hold onto you
Red line for half a mile
Now what am I supposed to do?

I really hope that someday I will see you there
The golden palace floating in the air
I really wish that someday you'll say
The trick in life is not to rush
You'll feel so light weighed down by love

Far away
(I'll keep on searching for something
That tells me you found me, that I'm not alone)
And one day
(The clouds will look black, and hardly
I'll hear you say proudly: It's time to come home)

(It's time to come home)
