(B. Walkenhorst)
Looking out my window, the eclipse has begun
I grab your hand, we run outside and dance in the dimming sun
Light through the leaves casts a zillion crescents on the ground
And you say hold me tight (Alright!)
Peeking through a pinhole, the eclipse has begun
The shadow tag of sun and moon washes over us and everyone
Lives that overlap without ever seeing that it's so
And you say hold me close
Don't let me go
High noon and midnight we're standing in the path
Where shadows beget shadows and every step has an aftermath
Leaving tiptoe ripples of a stepping stone
Nobody walks alone
Things are set in motion, sounds clash and harmonize
And the fire of the moment becomes the light in my baby's eyes
We plant by the moon, by chance and by design
And I know this is mine
This is mine all the time
There's a butterfly in China and a Kansas thunderstorm
A man laying down a dollar and a young girl's clothes being torn
Actions and reactions, echoes only dogs can hear
And I say what's that sound?
Spinning me round and around and round
And I'm looking at the sky, I see the eclipse at an end
I am but an arm's length from my lover and my friend
And from every other soul that I may know or never will
Under the shining sun
Life goes on and onYou peeped me at the stop light
x5 polished twenties rolin' tight
I was wildin' out my sunroof
On my way to the roller rink
Get my skate on tonight
Said baby can you follow me
Down the street
Show you were the party's live
(Ooh ooh ooh baby, ooh ooh ooh)
Gotta fresh cut
And you got your hair done
We both clean and lookin' fine
I watch you roll so...
Sof'n sweet
Lookin' like she might be available
Sound good to me baby
To get close with me
Maybe I'll just stand here watch her break it down
Break it down for me
Sof'n sweet
Lookin' like she might be available
Your gonna ride with me
Close with me
Maybe I'll just stand here watch her break it down
Break it down for me
Cause I'm liking what I see up in this mug
With my family
We got the whole rink to ourselves
Just me and my peeps going around clowning
(You know we clowning)
Kinda like the night when everythings alright
Red and blue sparkling light disco balls spinning round we rollin' tight
And everything that you do makes me want to ride
Do something something sof'n sweet tonight
Sof'n sweet
Lookin' like she might be available
Feelin' ya wanna come with me
Close with me
Baby I just stand there watch you break it down
Break it down for me
Sof'n sweet
Lookin' like she might be available
Thinkin ya wanna come with me
Close with me
Maybe I'll just stand there watch her break it down
Break it down for me
Look atcha dancin'
Girl you're so fine
Just have to see and talk to you
I don't see you with a man
Hope you're not taken
Here goes nothing
Go ahead show me how you do that
You push that left hip in
You push that left hip out
Poke out that love so I can see
Then you turn that love around
So sof'n sweet you do
When you do you turn it out
That's what it's all about
You push that left hip in
You push that left hip ou
