Little Green Light

I'm looking at your little green light across the water
Tiny ripples bring you right back home to me
Little slivers of the nights we crossed the borders
Have been filling up my mind
Just give me one bit of your time, please

This is brevity, a little peaceful serenity
Centering, surrender to me
An endeavor for keeps, I keep pedaling back
To a point where we could gesture a laugh
Never question the path, I let it ride out
The world passing by while you high on the couch
We need direction, off the rails of this crazy train

So claim stake or never state your claim
'Cause honesty's the only thing that you can take to graves, baby
C'est la vie and break away
C'est la vie and break away
Honestly, I just need me a moment to weigh
So c'est la vie and break away
C'est la vie and break

I'm looking at your little green light across the water
Tiny ripples bring you right back home to me
(Right back home to me)
(Right back home to me) little slivers of the nights we crossed the borders
Have been filling up my mind
Just give me one bit of your time, please

I think of the way we hold each other, yeah
We're staving the cold away
I think of the way we fold just like the days of old
The olden days, and the moment stays
I'm staring at you dead in the eye
And I'm holding face, I know my place
Who's gonna be the one to speak first?
The bubble of silence stretches, if we breathe, it bursts
And then we'd be standing naked and exposed
Making faces like we're paying the next tolls, yeah
'Cause it's a long, long road and we don't get a break
My pedal to the floor on adoring 'em and my mental state is
Abhorrent, I'm pouring 'em, but they never seem to last
And when I see your light, I raise it up and clean the glass
We need to meet up and see if we can redeem the past
'Cause keeping the feet up and dreaming has got me fiending fast
I'm always down the road, it'd be right
I'm looking at your little green light so

C'est la vie and break away, break away
C'est la vie and fade away
(Right back home to me, right back home to me) c'est la vie and break away
(Right back home to me, right back home to me) break away
(Right back home to me, right back home to me) c'est la vie and fade away
(Right back home)
Fade away (right back home)

I'm looking at your little green light across the water
Tiny ripples bring you right back home to me
(Right back home to me)
(Right back home to me) little slivers of the nights we crossed the borders
Have been filling up my mind
Just give me one bit of your time, please

Now I'm looking at your little green light across the bay
But you were gone today
I was headed out, you were on the way
(Right back home, right back home)
We've got tomorrow
