The Dream Syndicate - The Universe Inside

The Longing

All that's left now from before
Is the final twitch and spasm
Like it happened long ago
Distant across the chasm

You think you know where it's at
The longing is stronger than that
All that's left is the longing

You felt invincible
Anything was possible
Now all that's left is the longing

Sleepless for days and days
Decisions and communiques
Ruthless, unsettled
And alone

The harder you try to fix it
Eliminate, deep six it
All that's left is the longing

You think you know where it's at
The longing is stronger than that
All that's left is the longing

You felt invincible
Anything was possible
Now all that's left is the longing
