To find you here beside me
Through the blinds the bands of light
Throw circles round your hair
The passion of the here and now
The sweet taste of the coming
On your lips and in my heart
So naked and so honest
Children laughing in the street
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
Flowers bursting through concrete
And everything keeps turning
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
But gravity will take us all
Tomorrow dips away
This moment's where I'll stay
This love is mine today
Today
Let me tell you something about myself
And I don't talk too easily
That scented room on the nineteenth floor
Short stories on cordless phones
I quit smoking but drink too much
Don't try and analyze me
Found a smile inside my life
Now nothing feels so frightening
Children laughing in the street
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
Flowers bursting through concrete
And everything keeps turning
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
But gravity will take us all
Tomorrow dips away
This moment's where I'll stay
This love is mine today
This is love is mine today
And down on the darkest street
The day is waiting to begin
So draw back the curtains now
And let the love come rushing in
Children laughing in the street
The world grows underneath our feet still yearning
Flowers bursting through concrete
And everything keeps turning
Leaders rise and soldiers fall
But gravity will take us all
Tomorrow dips away
This moment will not fade
This moment's where I'll stay
This love is mine today
I wake up in the planet's dawn To find you here beside me Through the blinds the bands of light Throw circles round your hair The passion of the here and now The sweet taste of the coming On your lips and in my heart So naked and so honest Children laughing in the street The world grows underneath our feet still yearning Flowers bursting through concrete And everything keeps turning Leaders rise and soldiers fall But gravity will take us all Tomorrow dips away This moment's where I'll stay This love is mine today Today Let me tell you something about myself And I don't talk too easily That scented room on the nineteenth floor Short stories on cordless phones I quit smoking but drink too much Don't try and analyze me Found a smile inside my life Now nothing feels so frightening Children laughing in the street The world grows underneath our feet still yearning Flowers bursting through concrete And everything keeps turning Leaders rise and soldiers fall But gravity will take us all Tomorrow dips away This moment's where I'll stay This love is mine today This is love is mine today And down on the darkest street The day is waiting to begin So draw back the curtains now And let the love come rushing in Children laughing in the street The world grows underneath our feet still yearning Flowers bursting through concrete And everything keeps turning Leaders rise and soldiers fall But gravity will take us all Tomorrow dips away This moment will not fade This moment's where I'll stay This love is mine today Explain Request ×
