Lyrics
Still haunted by those memories / of a truth that was not mine / carry them everywhere I go / hoping they'll pass with time
The poet asks the questions, / but gets no response / As the dancer dances through the laughter, / in hopes of what she may find
chorus: I said / Hey, Hey You / Hey, Hey You
I've measured all those moments / with cigarettes and wine / believing in some destiny / that was neither yours of mine
The stars they flow beneath us, / the oceans way on high / seeking resolution / to the chaos in our minds
chorus: I said / Hey, Hey You / Hey, Hey You
I once believed there was a chance / to redeem this mortal coil / Looked east, and then west / in hopes of finding more
Then you came down upon me / With that thunder and a bolt / Made me realize that only love / could stay the course
chorus: I said / Hey, Hey You / Hey, Hey You
But as we wander through / these labyrinths of time / Choices made with best plans layed / We fought for what was right
Promising we'd be together / a kiss would seal our hopes / but still find ourselves at the gates of sorrow / adrift, in this thing called love
chorus: I said / Hey, Hey You / Hey, Hey You
