Lyrics

When your sky starts to tumble and your rhymes start to lose The meaning so tenderly given When all your dreams lie down and die at your shoes You can turn to me for livin' When your sweet words begin to turn black on their vines And they bear their fruit no longer And lay down your love songs and leave them behind I'll show you something stronger The shadow you're chasin' will fade in the sun Don't let disbelief deceive you As you hide from your sorrow remember there's one That only seeks to please you But now you must follow your poems as they fly Leaving trails of empty feelin' Perhaps when you watch all your dream lovers die You'll decide that you need a real one
