Lyrics

Café Standstill

At a small café in Birmingham you agreed to hear my call
I was somewhere on the coast feeling battered by the fall
what did you imagine, would it be the end of all
could we finally mend the pattern in between us
and start tearing down the wall

God the world is fresh and sweeter than the snow
I once thought about myself as a man who no one knows
but take the change in time and changing winds in the sky
I guess I?ve changed my state of mind

look around and I will see you by and by
I once thought about myself as a man who could not cry
but in my spirit, in my heart and all my soul, suddenly the tears began to roll

Bridge
after all it?s just past midnight in my mind
feeling all the moments in our time unwind
look the sky is falling down, I can?t imagine being found
help me pull myself up onto higher ground
I need to turn myself around

I guess our story takes us back to one on one
it never seemed to be that way until we finally came undone
but none the less, it seems we?ve made it through the past
and now the future comes too fast

At a theater in my parents? town I played a night last year
I looked out and across the crowd for your presence to appear
what did you imagine, would I blame it on the fall?
don?t you see the final pattern in between us is the love that feeds us all
