Here in this black in this black in this black shimmer of a world
all the lonely men n women boys n girls
in this black shimmer of a world
all the lonely men n women boys n girls
everybody take it day by day
make sure you get some time into play
In this black shimmer of a world
here in a black shimmer of a world
your lips come apart sorry what'd you say
her eyes fall shut oh so slowly then they open up the same way
here in a black shimmer of the earth
every day we get up n go to work
so many thoughts we keep to ourselves
look at all the trouble speak just as well
here in a black shimmer of a earth
some people are TV commercials know it hurts
hard to interact on any given day
hard to ever act everyday
here on a black shimmer of a earth
we discover so much joy n so much hurt
here in a black shimmer of a earth
all the lonely men n women boys n girls
here in a black shimmer of a earth
see them in sunlight something’s wrong
when the rain comes the reflections gone
here in a black shimmer of a earth
searching for the words of just what to say
those vibrations might be just enough to take you away
here in a black shimmer of an earth
better just to play it day by day
careful not to get in their way
walk very softly careful what you say
love is in the shadows over there
in the black shimmer of the earth
in the black shimmer of the earth
if feelings came across on the winds
if feelings came across on the winds
where you going now where you been
in the black shimmer of a earth
in the black shimmer of the earth
in the forest late at night
even though its the city in broad day light
in this black shimmer of a earth
please tell me you understand
travel deep inside of you if I can
here in the black shimmer of the earth
so many situations out of hand
people go and make a final stand
maybe they should just all hold hands
somewhere in these forgotten lands
everything grew so tall now its sand
there's a storm coming in thru the east
in the other direction comes the beast
will this ever ever cease
I dream of flying all the time
high above the earth I start to shine
then I come back down to the earth
back to the black shimmer of the earth
that situations wrong lets make it right
heading thru the mountain pass at night
will we ever come back this way again
better cherish everything along the way
make it your friend or enemy either way
in this black shimmer of the earth
in this black shimmer of a earth
watch the lightning flash n crows they fly
never seen such a foreboding sky
in a black shimmer of a earth
