I'll bring you lemons
with your tea
I'll kiss your eyes
'til they open to see
another morning
if I ever get out of this place
I'll part the curtains
to let the sunlight in
and watch the shadows
melt from your skin
I will see this
if I ever get out of this place

And when you leave my arms
to work in some high-rise
I will walk the streets
and search in strangers' eyes
for the secret there
that always hid from me
the one that lets you all
move in harmony

and when you come home
to sit by my side
I'll have learned nothing
but at least I tried
I won't stop searching
if I ever get out of this place

No I won't hate the ones
who put me here
that there may be no God
will be my only fear
I will not tear the air
like some unchained beast
I'll have no sharpened stones
in those pockets filled with peace

And then I'll love you
like a symphony
And come the morning
the first thing that I'll see
will be your sleeping face
if I ever get out of this pla
