Washes Away
I can laugh at this dream
And if i drown i'll wake in the morning
This is liquid love in a plastic cup
And if it leaks we can plug it right back up
Pain is a rain that washes away
I'm a fabric you can't stain
To make light of you is all that i have
So understand me if i laugh
You were sleeping
And your eyes they were gone for a while
You were screaming
And i searched for the lines of your smile
This is peace and i know 'cause i'm too tired to cry
I'll never get close to you and i'm just too distracted to try
Pain is a rain that washes away
I'm a fabric you can't stain
To fall into this is not what i want
So understand me if i don't
Love is a glove that just doesn't fit
No matter how you pull at it
To make light of you
Is all that i have
So understand me if i laugh
It is late i won't ask you to stay or to stroke
I have never gotten warm from you huddling close
If you danced i might take you right up in my arms
But you don't
So i whisper this is all
This is all all
