The Mighty Handful - Touchy Subjects

For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Stars

In a dream
I see you running far, so far from me
While the sun sets slowly behind
I've never seen such a chase in all my life
But you were always there

In my dream
I see you crawling lowly back to me
While the sun sets slowly behind
I've never seen such a face in all my life

Stay down, stay calm
I won't punish you for long
Stay down, stay down
You are back where you belong
Stay calm, stay down
I will keep you safe not sound

In a dream
You touch the stars and raze your warmth for me
Now your world is hollow and dry
We have to do this and you know why

Stay down, stay calm
I won't punish you for long
Stay down, stay down
You are back where you belong
Stay calm, stay down
You wanted stars so watch them burn
Stay down, stay down
Even now the tables turn

In a dream
You wish you were as good as good can be
While the sun sets slowly in my eyes
You've never seen such beauty in all your life
And I'm no longer there
