STARGAZING
Delerium feat. Angela McCluskey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could sing you to sleep, while I hear your heart beat
I could hold your hand longer than most lovers meet
Ah, see you grasp at every straw, watch you watch your every flaw
See you try so hard
Makes me wanna call in the law
Makes me wanna call in the law

Can't you see what you're doing to me
Can't you feel what my heart wants to feel
Can't you see what you're doing to me
Can't you feel what my heart wants to feel
Can't you know everything you say I can hear you
Don't go, everything you say I can hear you
Don't go I love you, ooh I do

There's no one else for me to blame
To help me through this night
I know right now I have to see the truth in black and white
Oh, I misunderstand every little thing I could
Looked for treason in your eyes
When there was nothing but you

Can't you see what you're doing to me
Can't you feel what my heart wants to feel
Can't you know, everywhere you go I'm with you
Can't you know everything you say I can hear you
Don't go I love you yes I do
I love you, ooh I do

Solemn as an owl you terrorize my mind
Speaking words so foul, there's so few of your kind
Here's my one solution, ahh, it's my lonely path of absolution
To hide behind your every lie, can't do this
Empty out your hand, bring em all to me
Cast them far away, I'm with you

Can't you know everything you say I can hear you
Don't go, everything you say I can hear you
Can't you know, everywhere you go I'm with you




Can't you know, everything you say I can hear you
Don't go

all these great music artist don`t get air play because the radio stations keep playing 20-30 year old music-but fun finding this stuff on your own.
