What I Wanted to Hold Lyrics
Yellow light on the wall
I can close my eyes and return
To the home I remember in a blur
Of sights and smells and sounds of old
But it's not what I wanted to hold
When I learned that I would have something of my own
What is love if not violet?
A beam of light on an autumn afternoon
That slowly fades to blue
I have always wanted you
When the summer goes long and the water stays warm
I remember the faces of everyone I've loved
And the places I have lived
And the places I have visited
You're alive and I'm alive
You're a dream that I had when I was young
I'm alive, and I'm OK
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
I want a place where I can stay warm
Deep inside my body of this earth
And a mouth that says soft things or just breathes in my ear
And a heart I can speak back to for no one else to hear
I can close my eyes and return
To the home I remember in a blur
Of sights and smells and sounds of old
When I learned that I would have something of my own
A beam of light on an autumn afternoon
That slowly fades to blue
I have always wanted you
I remember the faces of everyone I've loved
And the places I have lived
And the places I have visited
You're a dream that I had when I was young
I'm alive, and I'm OK
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
The air is light blue today
Deep inside my body of this earth
And a mouth that says soft things or just breathes in my ear
And a heart I can speak back to for no one else to hear
