Page 69 of Paint the Town, Dove

---

Walking like a lifeboat held us down

And how…

How does that make sense

How do we convince ourselves we’re safe

When all… all…

All of this time it’s you and I

[Chorus]

We’re alone, in this town,

Of heavenly red, constant dread

But I know, in this town,

Two birds will soar, if nothing more

Than to save… us….

Than to free… us…

Because we’re here, in this town,

Together. Forever.

… Even when we’re gone

[Verse Two]

I felt her that day, I felt someway that

Everything, everything was wrong

You knew it too

You helped me through

The good… that was gone

In a blink of an eye

With a tear in my soul

I found myself dying

Trapped in a hole

Of this world, this world’s not a friendly place

For the birds

That connect the space over –

[Second Chorus]
