Liminal

Tow'rs

Liminal became my creed
On the floor inside your house on New Year's Eve
The space between my head and heart
The distance often seems just too far

But I can't stay like this
I can't stay like this
I can't stay like this
Don't leave me like this

I wasn't looking but she found me
I wasn't listenin' but she spoke
In her affection I am sinking
It's while I was sleeping that I woke

Now the months and years have past
The shadows have offered a strange kindness
Not a sort that's rare or blind
One that dances because of the fire's light

But I can't stay like this
I can't stay like this
I can't stay like this
Don't leave me like this

I wasn't looking but she found me
I wasn't listenin' but she spoke
In her affection I am sinking
It's while I was sleeping that I woke

I wasn't looking but she found me
I wasn't listenin' but she spoke
In her affection I am sinking
It's while I was sleeping that I woke
