Ominous Horizons

When I saw you yesterday
It seemed you were so far away
Where have you been drifting lately, my dear love?
Ominous horizons
A cold wind is rising, it's old
But still surprising when it falls on you
You are my deepest hope and fear
You are what I'm doing here
In this dusty waiting room we call "life"
Won't you come and save me?
You know I love you baby, don't go
Stay and just maybe we will reap and sow
The night is ever dark and cold
The stars do tremble with fears untold
Won't you come and shelter me
With your blinding light?
I had a dream last night and you
You said, "Goodbye"

We couldn't say we really gave our love a chance
More like an interview
I couldn't tell you what it was or could have been
But I still think of you
And I wonder:
What do you do?
Who do you see?
Do they feel you like I do?
I know that it's better this way
Because you said that you didn't feel the same
And with the way you set my soul on fire...
It's all or nothing, girl. It'll all or nothing for me
It's all or nothing, girl, for you and me
And I wonder:
What do you do?
Who do you see?
Do they feel you like I do?
You know I can't stand
To see you with another man
You know I couldn't bear
To see you standing there
If I could not take you in my arms
And run my fingers through your hair
I'd be distracted by your charms
And want to follow you everywhere
So if you know we can't be
Then just stay away from me
If you know we can't be
Then just stay away from me
I know that it's better this way
Because you said that you didn't feel the same
And with the way you set my soul on fire...
It's all or nothing, girl. It'll all or nothing for me
It's all or nothing, girl, for you and me

Girl, you get me going
I've got you deep, deep, deep under my skin
You really get me going
I just can't help but let you in
But you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
But you keep coming back
You keep coming back
You keep coming back for more of me
You are in my heart
But my heart is sick
You are in my heart
And I need my fix
I need my fix
Girl, come on and give me a kiss
You wanted this!
But you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
But you keep coming back
You keep coming back
You keep coming back for more of me
I made a terrible mistake
I let you see my pain
I made a terrible mistake
Ahh, it'll never be same
But you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
No, you don't want me!
But you keep coming back
You keep coming back
You keep coming back for more of me
Ahh, I just can't help but let you in, no
I just can't help but let you in

When I feed on you
I always want more
When I lean on you
I fall to the floor
And skin my knees again
I can't remember when or even how
You did bind yourself so well to my heart
From the start, I have wanted you
And you were not sure
And I have haunted you
From outside your door
And yet you let me in
What a curious thing that you came to me
Only after I'd shattered my dreams of you
Still I'm afraid of you
Disappearing once more
Still my heart waits for your
To reveal what's in store
Yet I'm dying to believe
This time will be different:
When I need you, there I'll find you
And you'll stand up for me when I'm weak
Will you stand up for me?
When I'm weak...
Will you stand up for me?
Blueberry, you taste so sweet
Can't get enough of you
Blueberry, you taste so sweet
But you make me blue
Blueberry, Blueberry
Don't you feel so blue
Blueberry, Blueberry
Don't you be so blue

I am miles and miles away
From the person that I want to be
But I believe that
Music will save me
I am miles and miles away
From the person that I want to be
I am miles and miles away
From the person that I want to be
I'm a thousand miles away
From the person that I want to see
And I am miles and miles away
From the person that I want to be
But I believe
Music will save me
Melody will comfort me
Rhythm will carry me
Harmony will lift me
Love will save me
Love...
Save me

There is no hope for this thing between you and me
You said so from the start, it was never meant to be
Anything more than a moment in time
When the wine flowed to songs we both know
I know, I know
I could never tie you down, I could never change your mind
You're a smart girl you know best how you want to live your life
As if I could make you stumble in your stride
As if I would try to make you slow
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
And I've been trying hard to show that I can play it cool
But deep inside I know I'm breaking all the rules
'Cause when we kissed and I felt such bliss
I knew right then, the only thing I know
I'm gonna miss you when you go
I know, I know
I'm gonna miss you when you go
It could be the day after tomorrow, or the next
Or it could be months away, yes, that would be best
Then you'll be on your way to see another place
And I'll be sad to see you go
I know, I know
I'm gonna miss you when you go
I know, I know
I'm gonna miss you when you go
It's the only thing I know about you
I'm gonna miss you when you go

I will not say the words that are on replay
In my head all day
But if you're of a mind, look me in the eyes
Ask me one more time
And see what little lies I come up with
To hide what's inside
No, I will not say the words that are on replay
In my head all day long
What if they turned out to be wrong?
I don't think I could stand it
To get my hopes up about you
And have it not come true
That's why I will not say the words that are on replay
In my head all day
But If you're of a mind, look me in the eyes
Ask me one more time
Ask me one more time

We spoke long into the night and just after sunrise I said that the morning sky matched perfectly my motorbike. You said it wasn't quite right yet and I never will forget how the morning held its breath.
I looked out over the calm waters of West Lake and saw my mistake: I'd spoken too soon... So we kissed for the very first time as the morning sky brightened to a deeper hue.
In that still moment I knew that it was a new day I opened my eyes on... and you filled the horizon. It's a big, big sky over Rastaman Row, as we all know. I opened my eyes and you filled the horizon.
