8:00 pm on a Thursday

The view from on top of the world Is on the roof of your orange house Somehow there are no hills in sight Yet a mountain range in your bedroom At the line where the sky begins Begins the warmest moment of the day A blanket of April twilight And the stars run through your veins In the shadows of evening leaves There's a light that won't fade And its burning your hand in mine When it rains and they won't see me They won't see us this time Somewhere in a spring night I know All the many sounds we share We couldn't have heard them all When the only one I hear is your touch If the world is in my hands Why is it so hard to tell To tell you how, just how I feel I wanna see the stars with you Stars in your eyes Melt into my hands My hands melt into yours Your hands become my eyes I want to see Everything you touch Everything you love Everything you are In the shadows of evening leaves There's a light that won't fade And its burning your hand in mine When it rains and they won't see me They won't see us We're on top of the world Somewhere in a spring night I know All the many sounds we share We couldn't have heard them all When the only one I hear is your touch If the world is in my hands Why is it so hard to tell To tell you how, just how I feel I wanna see the stars with you Stars in your eyes Melt into my hands Stars in your eyes Melt into my hands Into my hands Into my hands Somewhere in a spring night I know All the many sounds we share We couldn't have heard them all When the only one I hear is your touch If the world is in my hands Why is it so hard to tell To tell you how, just how I feel I wanna see the stars with you Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh Somewhere in a spring night I know All the many sounds we share We couldn't have heard them all When the only one I hear is your touch If the world is in my hands Why is it so hard to tell To tell you how, just how I feel I wanna see the stars with you
