Shimmer Lyrics

she calls me from the cold 
just when i was low 
feeling short of stable 
all that she intends 
and all she keeps inside 
isn't on the label 
she says she's ashamed 
and can she take me for awhile
can i be a friend 
we'll forget the past 
but maybe i'm not able
and i break at the bend
chorus: 
we're here and now
will we ever be again 
'cause i have found 
all that shimmers in this world is sure to fade 
away,again

she dreams a champagne dream 
strawberry surprise 
pink linen on white paper 
lavender and cream 
fields of butterflies 
reality escapes her 
she says that love
is for fools who fall behind 
i'm somewhere between 
i never really know 
a killer from a savior 
'til i break at the bend 

(chorus) 

it's too far away for me to hold 
too far away 
it's too far away for me to hold 
too far away...

guess i'll let it go
