Forever and a Day

All the lives that could've been
Places that I've never seen
Do they ever stop calling
I was never there but it feels like I was
With the light and the rain falling
Beyond my universe
Beyond my outstretched arm
Beyond the green and endless sea
There's a candle burning in
The window of a dark evening
And everything waits for me

Nightbirds in the summer heat
Sing a song of far away
When I get there I won't sleep
I'll stay up forever and a day

On a rooftop in the snow
In a taxi going home
In the belly of the wilderness
I'll drop a line to say hello
Just a note to let you know
I've got no problems and no address
Where the broken fountains flow
And fireflies in the evening glow
I'll be awake but dreaming
I've seen your molecules
Your wheat fields and your hospitals
And I can't wait to be leaving

Nightbirds in the summer heat
Sing a song of far away
When I get there I won't sleep
I'll stay up forever and a day
