lyrics

The hills are shot with sun and rain
the world all green and golden
this burden I’d been carrying
I forgot what I was holding

Coming up over the rise
catch your breath at the view
oh the world’s a heartache baby,
and the world is this too
the world is the likes of you

And now I’ve lost the key
to a house that I don’t need
to live in any more
it’s something in the way you look at me
the shadows fade
into the edge of something sweet

We never know, starting all over again
what we might open up into
but here’s my ticket baby,
let me on that ride with you,
I want all of those rides with you

Cause now I’ve lost the key
to a house that I don’t need to live in any more
it’s something in the way you look at me
the shadows fade
into the edge
and now I’ve lost the key
to a house that I don’t need to live in any more
it’s like the sun is shining down on me
the shadows fade
into the edge of something sweet

We never know what we’ll open into
but here’s my ticket baby
let me on that ride with you
