Verse 1

There is a child sleeping near his twin

The pictures go wild in a rush of wind

The dark angel he is smuggling in

Watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled...

The love you lost with the skin so fair

Is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair

Her green eyes blew goodbyes

With her head in her hands

And your kiss on the lips of another...

Dream brother with your tears scattered round the world...

Don't be like the one who made me so old
And don't be like the one who left behind his name
Cos he's waiting for you
Like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came...

Verse

I feel afraid and I call your name

I love your voice and your dance insane

I hear your words and I know your pain

Your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of another

Your eyes to the ground

and the world spinning round forever

Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over...
