[Verse 1]
There were songs in the trees
There were signs all around me
There was a band playing softly as the day was slowly dying
[Chorus]
I put my hand inside
I pulled a green stone from my pocket and I watched it glow
I heard a train go by then I thought of you
[Verse 2]
I saw you in a dream
You were wearing my sorrow
And I begged you to stay but it was eternally tomorrow
[Chorus]
I put my hand inside
I pulled a green stone from my pocket and I watched it glow
I heard a train go by then I thought of you
[Verse 3]
Wake me, take me up from the ashes
And I will fly like I'm supposed to fly
Touch me, tell me
When the sky came down and you left the ground
Why you never said goodbye
[Verse 4]
I want to live in your house
This is not my room, it's just a cold hotel
I want to stay in this dream until I believe
[Chorus]
I put my hand inside
I pulled a green stone from my pocket and I watched it glow
I heard a train go by then I thought of you
[Outro]
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
I'm getting older (but you keep on living)
Inside my head there is a place for you, my friend
