Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The countless eyes
Dotted in the night sky
I speak the language
Several hundred words
Cloudless day
Thunderous night
Among companions
Carry my name
[Verse 2]
The life we lead
Came gradually
Who keeps the time
A bitter lime
Do us fine
To kill the taste
[Verse 3]
Turn deaf ears
On all that we don't wanna hear
Cause for travel
Has come again
At this early hour
Tell your wife a story
She looks outside
Doubles over laughing
[Verse 4]
The souls you love
The place you live
Those country houses
A change of heart
Tore us apart
Oh, what a ride
[Verse 5]
Every chance you have
All the love and light
All the joy and grace
Don't be upset
Don't you think it out
You know what thinking does
To love's shine and love's light
[Verse 6]
All together world
I'm hanging on
It feels right, feels strange p
I saw a strange thing
Reminds me of faces
Upon a stormy sky tonight
[Verse 7]
All the younger kids
Gone away to sleep
With the days to come
I'll do the same
At this early hour
Tell your wife a story
She looks outside
Doubles over laughing
[Verse 8]
But the life we lead
Came gradually
Who keeps the time?
And a bitter lime
Will do us fine
To kill the taste
