The Start

I closed my eyes and felt a missing heartbeat We were skipping stones on a choppy lake I gave you my heart when the bells were ringing Now we are stuck in a different place All the red petals died before they fell Spent our time throwing coins in a wishing well Should we pick it up, or lay it down? What we were is falling apart Do we have enough to work it out? And get back to the start All the chatty preachers keep on chirping (chirping) Like the high-pitch sound of a piccolo Out among the wolves we stood there naked Too much for us to bare or hold All the red petals died before they fell Spent our time throwing coins in a wishing well Should we pick it up, or lay it down? What we were is falling apart Do we have enough to work it out? And get back Ooooh-oooh-ooh, ooooh-oooh-ooh All the red petals died before they fell Spent our time throwing coins in a wishing well Should we pick it up, or lay it down? What we were is falling apart Do we have enough to work it out? And get back To the start
