Incomplete Lullaby Lyrics

Like a turning head

Like a second look

Like a burning leaf of an open book

Like a pounding sea

Like a messy crime

When your eyes first met with mine

Like a broken word

Like a tragic smile

Like a thousand steps or a single mile

Like a lonely chance

Like a savage glow

When you turned and said hello

I was just about to call

There were flowers on the ceiling

You left me feeling

Like a fading voice

Like a closing door

Like a dozen lies and a dozen more

Like a twisted tongue

Like distant bike

When we broke out in the dark

The stars looked like burning sparks

The lights were warm but chilling

You left me feeling

Tired

Could not close my eyes

On fire

But frozen inside

To run or to hide

Speechless my words could not melt

Whisper I wanted to shout

With out you I felt

Like a fleeting thought

Like a double eight

Like a gentle fear of a warming taste

Like a placid breath

Like a cooling blow

When you stopped and held me close

Inside I nearly froze

Your touch is almost healing

You left me feeling

Tired

Could not close my eyes

On fire

But frozen inside

To run or to hide

Speechless my words could not melt

Whisper I wanted to shout

With out you I felt

Like a setting sun

Like a last goodbye

Like an incomplete lullaby
