Aladdin

Doubled the top knot flew out the lattice door
Do what he wouldn′t, do what he couldn't do
No lack of wouldn′t could be my undoingNo lack of trying, no lack of sighing loo

Weave songs of loving, late dream songs of dying
Recite the oakwood flame, rings count my olden days
I've seen the beaches breached the peak of please and thanks
I've seen my features age, my fingers strange

From the dew
From the dew of the fields we grew
And I built a ship for two
It waits for me and you
In the dew of the fields
Is it real? Is it real?

I′ll show you the way
Just walk beside the low stream until it fades
Into a melon colored field
The wind will know your name
And you don′t have to run
You don't have to change
Don′t ever change

We were the candles that lit up the snow on dusty roads
We were the animals breathing life into June just to see faith
Blessed by the cannibal moon and the spoon dipping deep to your nose
Stressed by the distance of shoes and the bridges too far to be named

Was it real?
When we held our hands close to flame
Just to feel

I'll show you the way
Just walk beside the low stream until it fades
Into a honey colored field
The wind will know your name
And you don′t have to change
You don't have to change

Love is real
Our love was real
It′s a hand, it's a hold, it's a shield

Our love was real
Our love was real
It′s to hope, it′s to dream, it's to heal
It′s to heal
