Lands of Make Believe

Lyrics

I'll open the door just as you walk away
 "Please won't you stay?" you'll hear me say
 Don't you remember the days we had so much to say but we'd sit in silence anyway
 Through the wind and the trees, the lands of make believe you'd
 Say you would listen to me and it would help you get through
 All the birds and the bees, the tiny shiny things in
 Your eyes when you looked at me
 They always made me believe
 I don't remember a day when I let everything change
 I thought I'd always known best
 But you looked into the sun and I watched you become
 Just so much brighter than anyone
 Through the wind and the trees, the lands of make believe you'd
 Say you would listen to me and it would help you get through
 All the birds and the bees, the tiny shiny things in
 Your eyes when you looked at me
 They always made me believe
 So I said "There's something that I think you should know;
 When you turn to leave it brings me so much pain to watch you go and
 Somewhere between all the birds and the bees and all our make believe
 And the wind in the trees you became everything to me"
 When I opened my eyes I did not recognise the look on your face
 And well there used to be days when we had nothing to say
 But this silence now is not the same.
 Then you said "Your whole life is a lie, your stars will never shine and
 Your sun was never that bright, well maybe I don't have time
 To see the world through your eyes"
 And I said "But all the birds and the bees, the tiny shiny things in
 Your eyes when you looked at me
 Did they mean nothing at all?"
 I set myself up to fall
 I opened the door just as you walked away
 "Please won't you stay," you'd hear me say.
