Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I named a star for you
I named a star after you
But that wasn't bright enough for you

I climbed a hill for you
I climbed a hill just for you
But you said "That's nothing new, what does that prove?"

I know if I find when you hide in your mind, I'll get lost in it
I'll wait for the day when I find a way to make you mine

I put up a building for you
With thirteen floors and a nice view
But that wasn't good enough for you

So I pushed down down like you asked
Built again out of glass
So every star could shine through, darling, and you'd change your mind

Oh my darling, you should know
Since the last time you saw me, I have grown

I know if I find when you hide in your mind, I'll get lost in it
I'll wait for the day when I find a way to make you mine

all the water, all the water in the world...
stop my heart, stop. lay for once.
and do you know, the secret road...
where I can go, to see and feel you grow

if it's not too much, i would love to see you there
with bone coloured skin and flowers in your hair
if it's not too much, i would love to see you there
with bone coloured skin and flowers in your hair.

where does the time go? 
where does the time all go forever?

it hides in your eyes, in a picture 
in another place's sky

i have it in my hands,
they're the words to a song I never sang.
it's more than letters, it heals that bridge.

if it's not too much, i would love to see you there.
with bone coloured skin and flowers in your hair.
if it's not too much, i would love to see you there...
with bone coloured skin and flowers in your hair.
if it's not too much, i would love to see you there.
with bone coloured skin and flowers in your hair.

you can be my woman, you can take the water.

Wherever you are
Floating on a boat or on a star

Whatever you do
Every time we touch you move

You have different eyes
For every time your heart arrives

I want you to sigh
It's alright

I am a fine lift swimming you are the line
If this was a new land, darling
You'd be the find
I wanted to keep you close
Make you mine
If this was a moon land, darling
You'd be the find

Wherever you go
All the different places you know

Whatever you hear
All the things you needed are hear

It is a different heat
To all the other things that you meet

So don't close the door...

I am a you are the line
If this was a moon land, darling
You'd be the find
I wanted to keep you close
Make you mine
If this was a moon land, darling
You'd be the find

I know it's hard to be calm in a storm
I know it's hard when your heart is
I know you tried to work it all out, now

I am a swimming you are the line
If this was a moon land, darling
You'd be the find
I wanted to keep you close,
Make you mine
If this was a new land, darling
You'd be the find

If you crash your car into,
Your best friends house,
Would you be quiet as,
Words come out of their mouth.

Stop..... dont do it
I have been waiting for it,
Stop..... I knew it would come.

If you find a god next to,
Your girlfriends bed,
Would it be hard to,
Sort out your spinning head.

Stop.... dont say that dear,
That you wanted him here,
Stop.... dont give him a clear.

Take a picture of them,
Take a picture of them.

If you are afraid dont be,
I have the whole thing planned,
We'll start in the ocean baby,
And when we find the land,
We will be thankful to,
All of our friends,
That they didnt leave us,
As we got to the end.

Take a picture of them,
Take a picture of them,
Take a picture of them,
Take a picture of them.

If you find your faith in,
Your parents god,
Dont be so quick to,
Point out the flaws in it.

Youve been around and youve seen,
The way that things work,
But you need a compass to,
Get around your house.

Take me to the docks, there's a ship without a name
It is sailing to the middle of the sea
The water there is deeper than anything you've ever seen
...Jump right in and swim until you freeze

I will remember your face
'Cause I am still in love with that place
But when the stars are the only things we share
Will you be there?

Money came like rain to your hands while you were waiting
For that cold long promsie to appear
People in the churches started singing above their hands
They say "My God is a good God and he cares"

I will remember your face
'Cause I am still in love with that place
When the stars are the only things we share
Will you be there?

I've got a plan
I've got an atlas in my hands
I'm gonna turn when I listen to the lessons that I've learned
