"Look Away" lyrics

"Look Away"

Every time you look away
I see tomorrow morning
Breaking at the edge of day
On distant shores of night

Makes me feel so far away
You tune out without warning
Tell me what you see today
Show me that secret light

(Ba ba ba baaa...)
And make this evening bright
Show me that secret light
I know you fight against the shadows
You're looking for the light
But you can't find the window, no

Every time you say a word
Your eyes fall like plum flowers
So meaningless it seems absurd
It's all so very sweet

Every time I hear the strum
Of tears across your fingers
Tell me what you can't decide so long
Where fingers cannot reach

(Ba ba ba baaa...)
And make this song complete
Where fingers cannot reach
I know you fight against the shadows
You're looking for the light
But you can't find the window, no

Let's make the music right
Show me that secret light
I know you fight against the shadows
You're looking for the light
But you can't find the window, no

I know it's been so long...
