Sally I Can See You

There's a heartbeat in the distance, a flicker of light ahead

I've been down the street where they offer the deals

I'm shaking hands with the man who says he'll give me my dreams

Reaching up for a taste from a hand that feeds

I feel it growing from a whisper, to a shout and a fist in the air

I could smell the fire from miles away

But I was always going to run after the chase

I didn't leave you, I just went my own way

I know I've been here before

It must have been years or more

Like the first the day that I got off of the plane

And nobody cared to know of my name

I think I've been here

Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be

I've grown out of my own muse

But my heart, it has its say

Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be

I don't know how I got here

But my heart it hasn't changed

There's a melody I'm missing

But your song travels out to me still

Like the eyes of the dusk in the hot of the glow

But I was always going to run after the storm

I didn't leave you, I just leapt out from the shore

It's not like it was before

My hair's short and my jeans are torn

Time passed in the nighttime over my head

Suddenly, I'm in the sea and I'm unprepared

I wish you'd been here

Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be

I feel so out of my muse

But my heart, it has its say

Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be

I don't know how I got here

But my heart it hasn't changed

I let go of your hand, I knew our time was measured

I sailed out to foreign lands, we'll still fly together

There's a child that I left in the town I treasured

I'm running fast but I'm not running away

Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I was

I don't know how I got here

Sally I can see you, I'm not the girl I once used to be

I feel so out of my muse

But my heart, it has its say

Sally I can see you, you're not the girl you once used to be

I don't know how I got here

But my heart it hasn't changed

The push and the pull

I've been the Lover and the Fool

The grime and the glam

I've been the Devil and the Lamb
