Silverstein : Summer's Stellar Gaze
歌词
1. WAITING FOUR YEARS
I gave you everything, but it just wasn't enough to make you stay
You said you'd give me time and space again
I asked to see you everyday
Now I'm waiting four year just to feel your touch,
Waiting four whole years to say how much I care
The flowers I gave you, died, lost and been thrown away, just like me
Life has passed me by, reflected in my eye
Never again will I have you beside me, you to be there
The years behind cost more than I'll ever have
Now I'm waiting four years just to hear your voice,
Waiting four whole years to lie right by your side
I waited all this time, just to see your smile
I waited all this time to say how much I care
Can you see me waiting for you everyday?
2. WISH I COULD FORGET YOU
You won't repeat this for the rest of the crowd
I know they will miss but you'll still feel proud
but you'll still feel proud
Say it's gold, say it's fine
The secrets out that you're mine
Say it's gold, say it's fine
The secrets out that you're mine
Yeah!
That You're Mine!
Say it's gold, say it's fine
The secrets out that you're mine
The television radiates as the clock ticks on and on and on and on and on
It's getting too late and it's time to move on (x2)
Yeah!
3. FRIENDS IN FALLRIVER
Let's go!
Your life lives half a nation away, my heart hurts so
I believe letting you go was the biggest mistake of my life
What did I do?
Alone and confused
What can I say?
What can I do?
I'm heading the wrong way home, knowing alone is alone
It's just too difficult to be just me instead of we
What did I do?
Alone and confused
What can I say?
Nothing
I don't know where to begin 'cause you left me for him
I don't know where to begin since you left me for him
I don't want to start again, and I can't be your friend
I don't know where to begin now you left me for him
4. SUMMER'S STELLAR GAZE
As time passes us by and hurries us with pride, we'll have the past for the rest of our lives
Don't lose touch with reality, compensate for life's stupidity
I wait for it
You know that it's true
You cannot lose
A summer can't be forgotten from the words that you speak
Summer's stellar gaze
I wait for it
You know that it's true
You cannot lose
You're one of the few
Summer's Stellar Gaze
5. MY CONSOLATION
You left me,
Now you come back to me,
Saying it's changed
And we're not the same people we once were
And you beg to be back with me,
I can't see anything but you
Every night, I see you there
Everyday, I hate you and everything we once were
You keep saying it's changed and we're not the same
And you beg to be back with me,
Now I can't see anything
I won't forget everything that you put us through (x2)
Every night, I see you there
Everyday, I hate you
Crying can't carry you back to me
6. FOREVER AND A DAY
I thought we'd be together forever
But it seems I was wrong and everything's fallen apart
Think of what I've done for you
Think of all that we've been through
I hope every time he breaks your heart
you think of me and how I was to you
Everything's fallen apart
One day you'll see just how good I was
And I thought that we'd be together forever
[Spoken: the poem "Where The Sidewalk Ends" by Shel Silverstein]
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends
Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends
