about

Yesterday's gone. The future is bright. Until someone starts reaching from the other side...

lyrics

Dancin’ with the angels;
Runnin’ with the guns;
I fired my love to heaven;
And watched ‘em all fall down;

A suicidal daydream;
Singin’ in the rain;
She called me from the street below -
And a cab to yesterday;

Now I’m spinnin’ with a ghost in Central Park on Christmas Day;
Wondering how many times I’d board that subway train;
With a pocket full of petals and a war inside my head;
If only for the moment, would you fight to live again?

Dealin’ with the dealers;
Howlin’ with the wolves;
A pill before a pill;
I’ll have a glass of ‘Just one more’;
A barkeep ‘woke a spirit;
For a moment’s she’s alive;
I drowned the only one who knew;
The truth behind my smile;

Now a picnic with a ghost in Central Park on New Year’s Eve;
Wonderin’ how many times I sold our love for free;
With the loose change in my pocket -
I’ll have t’ find my way back home;
Will ya’ follow me ‘til the end of time or ‘til I find a phone;

Punch a hole to the other side;
Reach your hand into the night;
If today’s just tomorrow’s yesterday;
I’ll relive this moment with my apologies;

Exhale the demons;
Or blot the out the night;
Give up the anger or fight for your life;
Inhale the smoke from the letters I burned;
Breathe in the words that no one has heard;
Til’ now;

I guess I’m sorry now;
I guess I’m sorry now;
I guess I’m sorry now;
I guess…

Life is always fading;
From the reach of days worth living;
I’m haunted by the memories;
Of a joy that’s stole or missing;

Still the lost and found is cluttered;
With the clothes that never fit me;
And the dust of time I loved and lost;
Forgotten by this city;

Now, I’m wakin’ up in Central Park hungover New Year’s Day;
Wonderin’ what time I said my last goodbye’s in vain;
Teardrops are riverbeds in the corners of my eyes;
With heavy a heart I’ll ask my love, ‘Did you hear my voice last night?’

Punch a hole to the other side;
Reach your hand into the night;
If today’s just tomorrow’s yesterday;
I’ll relive this moment...
Punch a hole to the other side;
Reach your hand into the night;
If today’s just tomorrow’s yesterday;
I’ll relive this moment with my apologies;

I guess I’m sorry now;
I guess I’m sorry now;
I guess I’m sorry now;
