Peaking Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Though you're gone away I am here until the day
Tiger eyes, oh, high and here smelling to dreams, sweet dreams
It's another day in this world I have to stay
Though you're gone away I am here until the day
Tiger eyes, oh, high and here smelling to dreams, sweet dreams
It's another day in this world I have to stay
Though you're gone away I am here until the day
Nurture, turn the light and see and walk with me, and walk with me
Nurture, turn the light and see and walk with me, and walk with me
It's another day in this world I have to stay
Though you're gone away I am here until the day
Tiger eyes, oh, high and here smelling to dreams, sweet dreams
Nurture, turn the light and see and walk with me, and walk with me
Nurture, turn the light and see and walk with me, and walk with me
Nurture, turn the light...

A Motherboard feature on electronic music brought me here. I love how they make music from a combination of old consumer electronic items. This is absolutely incredible!
