Shimmer
She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low,
Feeling short of stable
All that she intends
And all she keeps inside,
Isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for a while?
Can I be a friend?
We'll forget the past
Maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
We're here and now
Will we ever be again?
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world
Is sure to fade
Away again
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise,
Pink linen or white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies,
Reality escapes her
She says that love
Is for fools that fall behind
And I'm somewhere between
Never really know
A killer from a savior
'Til I break at the bend
We're here and now
Will we ever be again?
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world
Is sure to fade
Away again
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away, ah ah...
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away, ow
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
Far away, ow
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away
Guess I'll let it go...
