i'll believe in anything

give me your eyes
i need sunshine
give me your eyes
i need sunshine
your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost

we've both been
very brave
walk around
with both legs
fight the
scary day
we both pulled the tricks out of our sleeves

but i'll believe in anything and
you'll believe in anything

if I could get the fire out from the wire
i'd share a life and you'd share a life
... if I could take the fire out from the wire
i'd take you where nobody knows you
and nobody gives a damn

and I could take another hit for you
and I could take away the trips from you
and I could take away the salt from your eyes
take away the skin and salt in you
and I could give you my apologies
by handing over my neologies
and I could take away your shaky knees
and I could give you all the olive trees
and look at the trees and look at my face and look at a place far away from here

so give me your eyes
i need sunshine !
give me your eyes
i need sunshine !
your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost

this morning on the subway this song came on my ipod. and i just had this gut reaction. all this emotion welled up inside of me. and i had to hold my self back from crying. wow.

this song is about my friend steph... she cant ever listen to it again. i played it for her once and its so dead on about her and her fiancee that she cant ever listen to it. this song is really affecting people in profound ways. today the combo between the song and the book i was reading was like someone stood on my heart as the sun stopped on my shoulder to say hello and wrap its big yellow arms around me rocking me gently through the dark dark subway.
