Sally I Can See You
There's a heartbeat in the distance, a flicker of light aheadI've been down the street, where they offer good dealsI'm shaking hands with the man who says he'll give me my dreamsReaching up for a taste from the hand that feedsI feel it growing from whisper, to a shout and a fist in the airI could smell the fire from miles away,But I was always going to run after the chaseI didn't leave you, I just went my way
I know I've been here beforeIt must have been years or moreLike the first the day that I got off of the planeAnd nobody cared to know of my nameI think I've been here
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to beI grown out of my own muse (I feel so out of my years?)But my heart it hasn't changedSally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to beI don't know how I got hereBut my heart it hasn't changed
There's a melody I'm missingBut your song travels out to me stillLike the eyes of the dusk in the hot of the glowBut I was always going to run after the stormI didn't leave you, I just leapt out from the shore.
Ooo. It's not like it was before.My head is short and my jeans are tight.Time passed in the night time over my headSuddenly, I'm in the sea, and I'm unpreparedI wish you'd been here.
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to beI feel so light and naive [?]In my heart, it has no senseSally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to beI don't know how I got hereBut my heart it hasn't changed
I let go of your hand, I knew our time was measuredI sailed out to foreign lands, just to fly togetherThere's a child that I left in the town I treasureI'm running fast but I'm not running away
Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I wasI don't know how I got here.
