[Verse 1]

              
"Show me, show

             
 me, show me h

       
ow you do that

 trick
            
The one that m

        
akes me scream

" she said
             
"The one that 

         
makes me laugh

" she said
            
And threw her 

      
arms around my

 neck
             
"Show me how y

   
ou do it
            
And I promise 

       
you, I promise

 that
             
I'll run away 

           
with you
            
I'll run away 

           
with you"


[Instrumental] *

        x4


[Verse 2]

             
Spinning on th

   
at dizzy edge
            
I kissed her f

        
ace and kissed

 her head
             
And dreamed of

         
 all the diffe

rent ways
            
I had to make 

    
her glow
             
"Why are you s

             
o far away?" s

    
he said
              
"Why won't you

             
 ever know tha

             
t I'm in love 

        
with you
            
That I'm in lo

             
ve with you"


[Chorus]


You

 Soft and only

You

 Lost and lone

ly

You

Strange as ang

els

Dancing in the

 deepest ocean

s

Twisting in the water
              
You're just li

           
ke a dream
              
You're just li

          
ke a dream


[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

             
Daylight licke

     
d me into shap

e
            
I must have be

    
en asleep for 

days
             
And moving lip

     
s to breathe h

er name
            
I opened up my

 
 eyes
             
And found myse

    
lf alone, alon

e
            
Alone above a 


raging sea
             
That stole the

      
 only girl I l

oved
            
And drowned he

         
r deep inside 

of me


[Chorus]


You

Soft and only

You

Lost and lonel

y

You
             
Just like heav
