Lyrics The Common Linnets

The Common Linnets

In Your Eyes

In your eyes I see a long road

From a far lost paradise

Is it where all of your thoughts go

When they run away from me in the night

In your voice there is a trembling

And I hear it when you're saying my name

You don't know when you're pretending

Guess you've gotten too good at the game

If you believe your only defense is perpetual motion

How can you come home

If you don't love me enough to let go of your running

Babe I'll let you go

It's a useless conversation

Cause your heart's gone out the door

And the freedom that you're chasing

Is the only thing that you're fighting for

You never did dare to surrender

Maybe you had too much to lose

And you're talking to me like its forever

And I'm wondering what you're trying to prove

If you believe your only defense is perpetual motion

How can you come home

If you don't love me enough to let go of your running

Babe I'll let you go

If you believe your only defense is perpetual motion

How can you come home

If you don't love me enough to let go of your running

Babe I'll let you go
