Oh, my love, you say this is the end
I'll tell you it's the hardest thing
I've ever had to do, my friend
But I'll go
I'll do what you say
But when I walk
I will walk away from you
And the dark place you come from
The hurt you share between the two
Run now, hide what you know to be the truth
But you know
I will walk away
I'll pretend
I don't feel something breaking
Look at yourself

Well, if you're feelin' down (down)
You know I'll be around (all around)
And you know that you can call on me
You wish you were dead
Take a breath instead
Yeah, take a piece of everything you see
And you know that the world is there for you
Life's a change, so what are you gonna do
Your eyes are painted blue
Look again, you'll see it's true, yeah
Your head's spinning around

I carry you up in my arms
Hear you sing yourself to sleep
The sky opens up over your room
You sail into your moonlight dreams
There's so much more than we can see
There's so much more than we can see
All we are and all we need is
All we are and all we need is
All we are and all we need to be
Grateful, oh, grateful
Grateful, oh, grateful
I play this guitar, sing these songs
It changes me instantly

You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is truly coming from you
When I get too close to you
I feel the fear, can almost hear it
Then you call me late at night saying
Can I be with you
I wanna be with you
You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies

A summer's day so long ago
A thousand boats dancing on the bay
I came to you inside a dream
We both held hands and fell into thee water
You never claimed to know me well
The dark-eyed son, the priviliged man
You found me bitter, you thought me cold
Well, now I'm gonna make you understand
My mother died, my father cried
He left me lonely by the waterside
Waterside so deep and wide
