Last night I rose, aflight, afloat, light as a ghost above my body dreaming. I glided toward the open door, and off I soared, the world beneath me gleaming. Which light are you, white, yellow, blue? Cars passing through, some escaping, some returning, daughters and sons. Pretend each one’s someone you’d run to save from a house that’s burning.
I was unkind, clueless and blind. Please let me try to give you all that I denied you. We’ll watch the day blaze into ash, fade into black. I swear I’ll start; I’ll bare my heart, dive through the stars, and I will wake beside you. Then in the dark, a spark will spread around our bed.
Do you like melodies and intelligent lyrics? Do you appreciate well crafted songs played amazingly well? Then check out this gem. You can't go wrong with a Bye Bye Blackbirds album. They could make bigger t-shirts though. ;-) John Ashfield
If I owned the vinyl single of this song, the grooves would have been worn smooth. One of my favourite opening tracks to any record. Come to think of it, it’s one of my favourite tracks. Michael A. White
