lyrics

Maybe you will wake up on the shortest day
Having not seen it coming ahead
But you'll see blue when you need to see blue
And red when you need to see red
Maybe you will get onto a bus at dusk
And sit down beside a man whose lunchbox is the colour of the sky
As if it all were planned

All I want you to tell me
All I want you to tell me
All I want you to tell me
Is how do you get what can't be deserved and can't be earned?
Tell me, how are you defining grace?

Maybe you will go into a picture show
And sit down inside the past
And come out thinking the world is new, well
Just enjoy it while it lasts
It won't last

For God's sake, let it out of you
You're never going to figure it out
If the beast's worth taming you won't be able to tame it
You want it
You can't have it
You can only give it away
