LETRA

Elsewhere

I love the time and in between
the calm inside me
in this space where i can breathe

i believe there is the distance i have wondered
to touch upon the years
reaching out and reaching in
holding out, holding in

I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
and i'll defend it long as i can be
left here to linger in silence if i choose to
would you try to understand

Oh the quiet child awaits the day
when she can break free
from all the clings like desperation
oh mother don't you see i've got to
live my life the way i feel is right for me
you say it's not right for you
but it's right for me

I believe this is heaven to no one else but me
and i'll defend it long as i can be
left here to linger in silence if i choose to
would you try to understand
