Story Behind the Song
Written after an all-night conversation, in that eerie twilight of the early morning
Lyrics
The world outside
tinted blue in the morning twilight
the moon still bright
We talked about my life
The way you feel when you know it's over
and how I never write
when I'm happy and calm
Where does the time go, it escapes too fast
the next thing that I notice
is the warmth of my bed
enveloping me, asleep at dawn
So tell me a story, and I'll sing along
It doesn't really matter if the words are wrong
All I want to hear is your voice tonight
When you sing to me, it will all be alright
The future dances round in my head
Turning, Turning Turning
My thoughts for him are dead
like bookmarked pages burning
What am I thinking, this monday night
Why so many choices, laying here for me
when what I want
will never be defined
at least never in my mind
So tell me a story, and I'll sing along
It doesn't really matter if the words are wrong
All I want to hear is your voice tonight
When you sing to me, it will all be alright
Is there anything left for me to say
And how did this all start anyway
Rhyming words by accident
a moment sprung from stillness
My mind drifts back to you
Should I invite you over
and the choice is mine tonight
And I want to see, that azure sky again
Painting the world a calming blue
So tell me a story, and I'll sing along
It doesn't really matter if the words are wrong
All I want to heard is your voice tonight
When you sing to me, it will all be alright
