Still Waters lyrics

I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke
I could make a woman hang on every single stroke
I was an iron man
I had a master plan
But I was alone

I could hear you breathing
With a sigh of the wind
I remember how your body started trembling
Oh, what's a night it's been
And for the state I'm in
I'm still alone

And all the wonders made for the Earth

From the highest tower, I will call you home
It's the same old story, love will find its way

You come to me, conspiracy of the night
The heart that you want just happens to be mine
Thieves in the dark, you ought to be locked in chains
But you wind up on my side, and what will be will be

That you wear a disguise, the epitome of deceit
The face of a friend invisible on the street

Now that we're alone
No more hide and seek
You are the highest dream to me
And as you softly sleep
Then I can tell you what it means
Locked in my arms like lovers lie
I will not let you slip away
I sthis the summer of them all
Is this my night of nights
That you came to stay

Here you are, owner of my heart
Just the way that love should be

Still waters run deep
Just remember when we lie to each other
No one wins and losers weep
Reflection will show
This connection we can lean on each other
This is all we need to know

Now I admit I've been a fool sometimes
I believe I may be losing you
It's now or never, we talk before a tear is shed
Under your spell and over my head
You took me in your arms and you told me

In the history of
A life takes a heart
When the power of love comes together
There is nothing can tear us apart
And the touch of your hand I can feel
That what we got is stronger than steel
That's when you hear

My lover's prayer
It's my own silent message to you
Takes me there, my lover's prayer
And my soul is divided in two
With my love on the line
I send it all over the world

Say you never send me away
Makin' me a memory and
Tellin' me to find me a life
Change, there's no changing,
What cannot be changed,
And you are witness to a silent conversation,
Nothin' but the black of night,
No-one ever take your place
Gotta let the pantomime
Play
Not to worry, my telepathy
I bring you into me there's be no separation

And I tell you

In the name of love and life
Turn your face to the lonely night
But you're not alone when she calls you home
And this your world is on the edge
As good as lost but you know the way
Through the faceless town
And she pulls me down

I know the place and the time (of our lives)
So long ago
And all through the years (never dies)
All things must pass

She'll read your mind
She's smart as a whip
She'll suck you dry
But look at how much I drip
At the point of ecstasy
I write a symphony
Of poetry in motion
And leavin' me there to die

I tell myself
Let no one take her place
To confide in someone
And look at how much I paid
I want you next to me
Call it telepathy
We drifted into vision
And look at how much we see

It happened in the middle of the night
When I thought I had control
Didn't want to be the one to fight
Didn't want to lose my soul
I was up to something more
Never thought I'd get it started
Paralyzed, polarized
Hung on every word

I'm in love with the child inside
I don't have a right to follow you
Or have a license to get closer
A love that won't be denied

Miracles happen

If we just try
We can put it back together, you and I
And all the bad is blown away
I never said goodbye
Is the writing on the wall that makes you see
And it's the saviour of my soul
And what I say that must be heard
With love in every word

Close your eyes, don't let go
Don't get lost in the falling snow
Alway out of place alone

When I was a boy, all the books I read
I followed like a blind man
To heed the words my father said
Those golden summers faded into night, words become a dream
The echoes of my childhood and where the path is winding

May God bless you, keep you safe from harm
I stand by you always
Time and motion
Hands touch, lips find a way to heaven on high

Watch the children play, the child becomes a man

Now that we're alone
No more hide and seek
You are the highest dream to me
And as you softly sleep
Then I can tell you what it means
Locked in my arms like lovers lie
I will not let you slip away
I sthis the summer of them all
Is this my night of nights
That you came to stay

Here you are, owner of my heart
Just the way that love should be

Still waters run deep
Just remember when we lie to each other
No one wins and losers weep
Reflection will show
This connection we can lean on each other
This is all we need to know

Now I admit I've been a fool sometimes
I believe I may be losing you
It's now or never, we talk before a tear is shed
Under your spell and over my head
You took me in your arms and you told me

Is this your voice I heard
Speakin' my name
I hang on every word
Each letter that I write
Every day, every night
But I just can't live and learn

Talking to myself and believin'
I could live without you
Livin' on the lies and believin' that
Love would stay
Listen to me please and I'm beggin' on
My knees before you
But you don't show the way
No you don't show the way

It happened in the middle of the night
When I thought I had control
Didn't want to be the one to fight
Didn't want to lose my soul
I was up to something more
Never thought I'd get it started
Paralyzed, polarized
Hung on every word

I'm in love with the child inside
I don't have a right to follow you
Or have a license to get closer
A love that won't be denied

Miracles happen

If we just try
We can put it back together, you and I
And all the bad is blown away
I never said goodbye
Is the writing on the wall that makes you see
And it's the saviour of my soul
And what I say that must be heard

Close your eyes, don't let go
Don't get lost in the falling snow
Alway out of place alone
