David Sylvian - The Shining of Things lyrics

[David Sylvian - The Shining of Things lyrics]

Take my word for it
This never should've happened
What in the world do you think got into me?
We fire at will and as
We watch the pieces shatter
We find we're closer than we've ever been

She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened to
And in the blindness as
My world stops turning
There's a sadness like I never knew

But, I still see the shining of things

As the morning breaks it
Hardly seems to matter
I hear a shallowness in everything I say
We've played the night out in
All too familiar fashion
To wear the heartache through another day

She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened to
And there's a stillness now
The rain stopped falling
There's a sadness like I never knew

But, I see the shining of things
