Lyrics
I hear the drizzle of the rain
It's falling from my window
And in the corners of my mind
I hope that I'll get to see you again
La-da-di-da-di-da-di-da-di
My friend, I hear the colors in the flowers, ooh
Just like the candle snuffed at dawn
You're hear, you're near, you're there and then you're gone
La-da-di-da-di-da-di-da-di

Suffering in sinking sand
All the hurt
See, I'm really lost, baby
We suffered a rare, rare blue
So much hurt
On this Earth
But you loved me
And I really dared to love you too
Perhaps what I mean to say is
Is that it's amazing that your love was mine

Oh, Maker, tell me did you know
This love would burn so yellow?
Becoming orange and in its time
Explode from grey to black then bloody wine
La-da-di-da-di-da-di-da-di (da-di)
Oh, Maker, have you ever loved (ooh)
Or known just what it was?
I can't imagine the bitter end
Of all the beauty that we're living in? (I hope that I get to see you again)
Ohh, no

Suffering in sinking sand
All the hurt
See, I'm really lost, baby
We suffered a rare, rare blue
So much hurt
On this Earth
But you loved me
And I really dared to love you too
Perhaps what I mean to say
Is that it's amazing that your love was mine

Lost inside a lonely world where lovers pay the price
Barely get the sound of music to love and go dance to
Now it's time for us to go
And no one ever has to know (now it's time for us to go)
Your love's in my pocket and your eyes, eyes are in my
Eyes in my soul, no one will know it but me
