I thought some time in the sun
Would help me get over you 
But I could tell from day one
This is a place meant for two

Now here I sit on the beach 

sitting in my glass house
while your ghost is sleeping down the hall
watching the little birds fly
kamikaze missions into the walls
think i'm going to stay in today

(con te partiro)

Stranded alone on a sea of emotion
You found me
Your love was a light
In the darkness that shone
So profoundly
Say that you'll stay

who drew the lines that say
That it has to be one way
You and me's a two-way thing
I can feel a spark
When you're touching me i start
To realize how hot this could be

Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams

Dreams broken in two
Can be made like new
On the street of dreams

When i was just a child
My life was, oh, so simple
And the ways of the great world
Seemed strange and funny
Then when i was a young man
I learned of that machine
