Lyrics
You swirl around my head, you do
A thought that’s everlasting
Like a dream I can’t awake from
Like a silence that is blasting through me
You whirl like the wind in the night
I can still hear the sound of the trees outside
You shine like the sunset smiled
On a kiss goodbye in paradise
Where did you come from?
What are you?
Why are you?
I know you’re someone
I can dream of
I can come to
You turned on a light in me
In a place that’s been so dark
A night set off a fire that burns and
Swirls inside my heart now
Where did you come from?
Who sent you?
What are you?
I know you’re someone
I could need
I could run to
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And you swirl around me
Through me, inside me
And you whirl like a ribbon
Through the air that finds me
What is this thing we are?
How can you be so far?
Is the sky falling?
Is this guy falling?
You swirl around my head, you do
A thought that’s everlasting
Like a dream I can’t awake from
Like a silence that is blasting through me
