lyrics

stars are falling down like rain
and soaking up the ground
diamond daggers at my heart
the sun is setting down
o have to close my eyes
o these feelings
o I will surely die
I’m needing you – tonight

I tried so hard to understand
I tried to see it through
but I can’t hear or touch your hand
the only thing that’s true
o have to close my eyes
o these feelings
and now I’m just too old to cry
I’m needing you – tonight

I’m digging down all the way this time
I dig myself a grave
there’s nothing left I’m calling mine
I’ve only got my spade
o have to close my eyes
o these feelings
these broken wings will never fly
I’m needing you,
I’m needing you
I’m needing you

dreams are falling down like stars
and walls like building sand
it doesn’t matter who you are
it’s who I really am
o have to close my eyes
o these feelings
love will not be done and die
o these feelings
o have to close my eyes
o these feelings
oh – have to close my eyes
I’m needing you
I’m needing you
I’m needing you – tonight
