Lyrics
Out here alone, wondering if it's showing
The pain that has brought this beauty to me
Castles in the Skye, a ring of tiger's eye
Out of jaded hands these things come to be.
Chorus:
Giving into love that we've been refusing.
Making sense of things that have been confusing.
I know there are things that we've been abusing.
I see it in you, the things that I've been through
Feel the sadness now and know it will pass
Into yesterday, it's just a brief delay
Before we ride the wave that's about to amass.
Instrumental Break
The descending sun tells us our work is done
Let's lay our heads down now for one moments rest
For soon we will play on hills by the Bay
And dream of our fantasies... tomorrow's quest.
Giving into love that we've been refusing.
Making sense of things that have been confusing
And you may laugh if this song sounds amusing.
