Sky In Your Eyes

Lyrics

Between the chords of a song years ago
 You saw a crack of light or was it a cause to follow?
 You've been chasing ever since around these streets
 For just the promise of a promise and nothing more to keep
 You drove us like a crazy man through those narrow cobbled streets
 You said 'there's nothing to fear' and we all smiled
 Round and round in that little car while the city lay asleep
 The city lay asleep
 With sky in your eyes, sky in your eyes
 The next day we went up to a ruined temple
 High on a cliff above the opal sea
 And watched as the angry storms chased around the bay
 And suddenly the wind rose up and the thunder cracked
 And you looked like you were home with your
 Weather-beaten face fixed in some kind of ecstasy
 When the lightning hit the road just a few yards away
 We all jumped up and shouted out but you never moved
 Just stared ahead like you'd seen a ghost
 So who was the ghost?
 One part left behind, one part already gone
 And one part standing here with sky in your eyes
 With the sky in your eyes, with the sky in your eyes
 If they won't make you captain then you sail your own ship
 With your own colours tied to the mast
 Setting sail for the far side of anywhere
 Beyond and behind your thousand yard stare
 With the sky in your eyes, with the sky in your eyes
