Time machine, let me into the future
Ready to forget the past
Long ago only leads to today

Soon we'll find we don't know what love is
Long after you've said goodbye
I'm getting in to jump time again

Take this heart that I'll have no use for
In a moment, I'll be gone
The place we are, around a dying star
One day we'll run from this dying sun

Alone again looking out through my window
Seasons flying past till they blur
Blotting out the colors of the world
Blotting out the colors of the world

Birth and death and laugh and cry (smile)
The years are flying by
Far beyond our dears, our tears (smile)
The years are flying by
The years are flying by

I'll only want you more
If I can touch you
I'll only want you more
If I can touch you

Time machine
(Time machine)
Time machine
Time machine
I'm getting in and springing forward

Time machine
(Time machine)
Time machine
Time machine
I'm getting in

. . .


Biding my time with a token align
...

Now you're just like a byrdgirl
Fly away from your pain
Don't let anyone hold you
'Cause it won't be the same
Walking into a wildfire, running into the rain
'Cause you know you're the one
The one
You've been breaking the laws, girl
That your own nature made
But if nobody cares
Then how can you be to blame?
Walk on into a wildfire
Run on into the rain
'Cause you know you're the one
The one
Driving like hail off the railing
Soaring the sky, say goodbye to the world
You've been breaking the laws, girl
That your own nature made
But if nobody cares, then how could you be to blame?
Walk on into a wildfire
Run on into the rain
Baby, how can I ask you to come down again?
Baby, how could I ask you to come down?

Walk on into a wildfire
Run on into the rain
Baby, how could I ask you to come down again?
Baby, how could I ask you to come down again?
Baby, how could I ask you to come down again?

. . .


I get along
Fall apart through the night, then I get back right for the daytime
I'm never wrong
Once I clear my mind and I hear the signs all around me
And as for the sunrise
She just can't wait to see me cry (Cry)
Baby, I've been flying
I don't know what's happening inside
I'm not even trying (I'm flying)
I want to be
Christ, I don't know
I'm innocent
So I can't make a dent, there's no big event to attend to
Or I would take you
Baby, I've been flying
I don't know what's happening inside
I'm not even trying (I'm flying)
I want to be
Christ, I don't know

Baby, I've been flying
I don't know what's happening inside
I'm not even trying (I'm flying)
I want to be
Christ
Baby, I've been flying
I don't know what's happening inside
I get along
Fall apart through the night, then I get back right for the daytime
And as for the sunrise
She just can't wait to see me cry (Cry)

. . .


Sun
Going down and fading me out with it
Chances are we'll both come around again
So I let it be
See
No one else but who is in front of me
There is no one special you need to be
It's only me
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
Don't you realize you can't be saved?
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
If you can't feel fear, you've gone insane
And away from anything that you know
Doesn't sound like so very far to go
But it's a million miles
War
Just because you can't see another way
'Cause you're not sure what I was going to say
Before you cut me off
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
Don't you realize you can't be saved?
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
If you can't feel fear, you've gone insane
I'm still listening to the wind
It's all I hear
I'm still turning inside out
To love you, dear
Sun
Going down and fading me out with it
Chances are we'll both come around again
So I let it be
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
Don't you realize you can't be saved?
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
If you can't feel fear, you've gone insane
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
Don't you realize you can't be saved?
Feel fear, feel fear
Do you believe, deceive yourself
If you can't feel fear, you've gone insane
Feel fear, feel fear, feel fear

'Cause we're already good and we're already evil
Unfazed by a world of constant upheaval
Aren't we already dead if we're already living?
Already found guilty, already forgiving
Let's love
Now we've done enough talking
And we've done enough thinking
Let's love
Now we've done enough wishing
And we've done enough hoping
Let's do it, let's love
With our one-track minds looking into the future
Happy in a house of cards
Let's love
'Cause I'm ready when you are, so tell me what you see
Until then, this science is only a theory
Let's love
Let's love
Now we've done enough talking
And we've done enough thinking
Let's love
Now we've done enough wishing
And we've done enough hoping
Let's do it, let's love
Now we've done enough talking
And we've done enough thinking
Let's love
Now we've done enough wishing
And we've done enough hoping
Let's do it, let's love

'Cause we're already good and we're already evil
Unfazed by a world of constant upheaval
Aren't we already dead if we're already living?
Already found guilty, already forgiven
Let's
Let's love
Let's love
Let's love
Now we've done enough talking
And we've done enough thinking
Let's love
Now we've done enough wishing
And we've done enough hoping
Let's do it, let's love

Shower me with your sunshine lies
And I'll believe even though I'm wise
To pain, to blaming ignorance on bliss
Shower me with your sunshine lies
To me it comes as no surprise
That I would need to fall into your arms
Shower me with your sunshine lies
And I'll believe even though I'm wise
To pain, to blaming ignorance on bliss
Shower me with your sunshine lies
I'll stay till every flower dies
Until you take my breath away
Until you take my breath away
Ooh, ooh
Take my breath away
Ooh, ooh
Take my breath away
Ooh, ooh
Take my breath away
Ooh, ooh
Take my breath away
Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine, sunshine
Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine, sunshine
Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine, sunshine
Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine, sunshine
Sunshine, I am sunshine
Shower me with your sunshine lies
And I'll believe you even though I'm wise
To pain, to blaming ignorance on bliss
Shower me with your sunshine lies
I'll stay till every flower dies
Until you take my breath away
Until you take my breath away
Sunshine
Until you take my breath away
Until you take my breath away

. . .


Coming back around
Baby, just when I need it
Stuck inside my head
You're a groove to my needle
Got nowhere to go, 'cause you know I don't want to
What's on your mind?
Slip back into bed
I'll pretend not to notice
Open up my eyes with you already in focus
From our blurry past
No one else needs to know us
You can look me in the eye
'Cause I'm right here
Open up and I will listen
The pleasure is mine
Any old time
If I can spend a minute with you
The future is ours
Lost in the stars
Tomorrow'd be gone without you
So, baby, tell yourself
I'm the one that you hope for
Ask yourself again
If you know what I'm here for
Tell me once again
That you feel what I'm feeling
Let me look you in the eye
'Cause I'm right here
Open up and I will listen
The pleasure is mine
Any old time
If I can spend a minute with you
The future is ours
Lost in the stars
Tomorrow forever in view
Something inside
Will always stay the same
Something inside
Will always stay the same
Because there's a heart that sets our love apart
Our love apart

Let me look you in the eye
I'm right here
Open up and I will listen
The pleasure is mine
Any old time
If I can spend a minute with you
The future is ours
Lost in the stars
Tomorrow'd be gone without you
The future is ours
Lost in the stars
Tomorrow forever in view
The pleasure is mine
Tomorrow forever
Tomorrow'd be gone without you

Daisychain
After I'm done, she's gone
After I'm done, she's gone away
The lazy rain
Follows a violent storm
That finally found the form to say goodbye
Do the words rolling off her tongue
Promise to be young
Promise to be younger
Many things
I'll never know for sure
After I'm done, she's gone away

Do the words
Rolling off her tongue
Promise to be young
Promise to be younger
To be younger
Many things
I'll never know for sure
After I'm done, she's gone away
Daisychain
After I'm done, she's gone
After I'm done, she's gone away
She's gonna bathe herself in sunlight

. . .


Sit down
I've got a thing or two to tell you
Thinking some things you oughta know
I've got to get my wits about me
Before the feelings start to show
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm in love with you
With you
Right now
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
I see the sunrise
I'm gonna finish what we started
But not till after it begins
I'm putting everything behind me
Because there's nowhere else to go but in
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm in love with you
With you
Right now
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
I see the sunrise

I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll find a way to tell you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm in love with you
With you
Right now
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
I see the sunrise

. . .


Sometimes
In my words and in my mind
I can't say the things I feel inside
Beat down
By my own admitted frown
But this isn't what I've come to say
It's too soon for goodbye
I'll be going away, but you're not gonna stay here forever, forever
We don't have long
Compared to when we're gone
So look around you now
Listen to your heart
Feel the world go round
No lies
Since I've got to know my mind
I don't need to figure out what's true
It's all mine
Moving forward
Losing time
And there's really nothing I can do, can do
It's too soon for goodbye
I'll be going away, but you're not gonna stay here forever, forever
We don't have long
Compared to when we're gone
So look around you now
Listen to your heart
Feel the world go round

It's too soon for goodbye
I'll be going away, but you're not gonna stay here forever, forever
We don't have long
Compared to when we're gone
So look around you now
Listen to your heart
Feel the world go round
Around you now
Feel the world go round, round, round, round
Around you now
Feel the world go round, round, round, round
Around you now
Feel the world go round, round, round, round
Around you now
Feel the world go round, round, round, round

. . .


I'm warning you now
You should know, and how
That I burn through love
As easy as you adding two plus two
You should run, don't walk
I burn through love
It'll break your little heart
Every time I turn my back again
I burn through love
Seems I just can't get enough
Of the stuff that really moves me
I burn through love
In no time
Nothing seems to stop my mind from wandering
Could you need me?
Should you need me?

I burn through love
It'll break your little heart
Every time I turn my back again
I burn through love
Seems I just can't get enough
Of the stuff that really moves me
I burn through love
In no time
Nothing seems to stop my mind from wandering
Could you need me?
Should you need me?
Could you need me?
Should you need my love?

. . .


All falls away
As closing my eyes, it begins
Breathe in a strange feeling
Not unappealing
I could be happy to be here
I know the rain
Only as something to need
'Cause as the poor leaves of fall ignore it
My dreams are growing green
My dreams are growing sure
Sure
Where do I go?
I don't know if I care where
I know you feel so low
'Cause I've been there
I'll just keep it in the back of mind
I can't find the time
I can't find the time
I fear the fire
Needed to warm me inside
'Cause as the ice cracks, in flow the facts and
Everything's slipping aside
I feel the pain
Coming and going away
It would be in vain trying to lay a claim now
I won't be sticking around
And I won't be sticking around
Where do I go?
I don't know if I care where
I k now you feel so low
'Cause I've been there
I'll just keep it in the back of mind
I can't find the time
I can't find the time

Breaking away
When there's no reason to run
'Cause like a seed, I need water and sun
My life has just begun
Sure
My life has just begun
Every day
Where do I go?
I don't know if I care where
I know you feel so low
'Cause I've been there
I'll just keep it in the back of mind
I can't find the time
I can't find the time
I'll just keep it in the back of my mind
Back of my mind
I'll just keep it in the back of my mind
Back of my mind
I'll just keep it in the back of my mind
I can't find the time
I can't find the time
