Slow life, languid and pure
Water flows over pebbles and pearls
On and on and on and on, it goes like that
One song, then another, then another, and then
Eventually we choose not to hear
Something is happening but no one cares
Dreamy eyes, you know where I am coming from
You are the sound I've been trying to put my finger on
But you make me wait
You make me wait
Lightning flashing on a windowpane
In my heart I think of you
So much is happening
So much is happening

Outside the frame
All those moments
Lead us back to here
Words add up to
Nothing at all
Float them in the air
And watch them fall
Oh, dreamy eyes
You know where I am coming from
You are the sound I've been trying to put my finger on
A better man could understand
The patterns of a simple dream


A task I can't explain
I see your face close sliding by
On southbound sides of northern Jersey coastal trains
But you make me wait
You make me wait
You make me wait
You make me wait
Lately I've been going back in my mind
To see if I was ever here
Some things are closer than they appear
To see if I was ever here
Some things are closer than they appear



And I see you
in the golden light
But then I see you

Closing your eyes
And drinking it in
Jo hence go
There's an overpowering sense of passing time

There's an overpowering sense of passing time
Dreamy eyes
You know where I am coming from
You are the sound I've been trying to put my finger on
Here I'm confiding inside where it's hard to hold myself
Time is still sliding and all of my walls can't support themselves
But you make me wait
You make me wait
You make me wait
You make me wait
You make me wait
