Long Distance Days

It feels like I'm walking on glass
And running on empty
I can't deal in your treacherous ways
And I don't how long my heart
Can hold on
In these long distance days

I risk it all for you
Love on the roll of the dice
And yet your words cut me
Deeper than any knife
And I'm running out of reasons
And running out of time
You give me no answers
To the questions I find
Haunting my lips
As you kiss away the night
But morning only brings
Fractured dreams in the clear, cold light
And I don't know how long my heart
Can hold on
In these long distance days

It feels like I'm walking on glass
And running on empty
I can't deal in your treacherous ways
And I don't how long my heart
Can hold on
In these long distance days

Still

In the shapes left behind
& the turn of the dance
All those quiet spaces
You don't understand

In the light falling slowly
& the shift of the sand
You don't see the same patterns
To all your grand plans

In the quick of a smile
And the heat of the moment
You forget the reason
For the places you're going

But in the shapes left behind
& the turn of the dance
In those quiet spaces
Are the answers you demand

Still, you'll have to take that chance
For a moment in the turn of the dance

Sleek City Night

Outside my window
The moon's cracked a smile
And I can't help feeling
That the joke's on me
Late night blues
Leaving me cold
Better go out and get me
Some kind of rock 'n' roll

Better hurry honey
It's a sleek city night
The music rubs right past you
Then cuts you like a knife

Better hurry honey
It's a night of neon signs
Lighting up your dreams
Then laying down those lines

And I can't help feeling
The joke's on me
Late night blues
Leaving me cold
Better go out and get me
Some kind of rock 'n' roll
