Astonish Me

Could you explain to a simple man

Why you always have to back away?

When something in your eyes

Is asking me to make you stay

Let's say we're lost in a sudden storm

And settle down into the night

We're still a universe away but it's alright

When we connect with a lightning look

It's frightening strong

I can almost feel us falling

Love is awake and it says

We're circling far too long

Get off that air of mystery

Reach down into your silence

And astonish me, astonish me

Get off that forlorn majesty

Come down into this current

And astonish me, astonish me
