Venice

A pastel gothic city There's no sound No sound Company in quiet Look around Just look around Follow the fading lights of the arcade's glow Cause those boats can't row They're chained down, those boats can't row The water's there, but don't jump in There's no knowing how deep it goes Or in the dark what lies below Walk and watch your step as you follow the arcade's glow Parallel to a figure, wary not to step on toes Daybreak Will bring a new beginning With it surface feelings that you're sure can't be your own Sunlight Reveals unseen freckles Lost in shadows hours before, but now they glint Like gold Venice, you have taken me Although I've never been to you I can see your streets, Well, lack thereof, in color in my mind I can't afford to get to you And I have hydrophobia But I won't tip the gondola I've painted in my mind The moon hits my eye Like a big pizza pie And I'm in love If I can't get there it's fine I'll picture you in my mind I'm in love Daybreak Will bring a new beginning With it surface feelings that you're sure can't be your own Sunlight Reveals unseen freckles Lost in shadows hours before, but now they glint Like gold Venice, you have taken me Although I've never been to you I can see your streets Well, lack thereof, in color in my mind I can't afford to get to you And I have hydrophobia But I won't tip the gondola I've painted in my mind The moon hits my eye Like a big pizza pie And I'm in love If I can't get there it's fine I'll picture you in my mind I'm in love
