Honey and Trombones

I think I used to think love felt like falling
Windchill raising goosebumps on shrinking mortal flesh
The soft parts of my heart clenching up hard
In case someone tried to open them
Who the hell would try to open them
But sometimes they did
Sometimes they tried
And I know how this must sound
But this feels like something else
You just touch me with your eyes and I feel strong and brave and bright
Like the city inside is the capital of the sun
On a major holiday every atom in my body's
A parade dancer twirling an electron baton
A parade dancer twirling an electron, electron baton
And if I move just right
I'll dissolve into a being of pure light
I only don't because dissolving's not polite
And it's really quite hard to say if I've ever felt this way
Really quite hard to say if I've ever felt this way
Like honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones
I used to think I got it now I really think I get it
I used to think I got it now I really think I get it
Wouldn't be writing the same songs
If you had never come along
The old masters knew suffering well
But what of joy?
Would the world just keep looking the other way
Were you to take my hand and unfurl our wings
Unfurl our wings
Would the jackhammer the woodpecker the cars the suits the smog
The city outside just keep keeping on
While you and I
Stood up and took flight
Stood up and took flight
Stood up and took flight
And it's really quite hard to say if I've ever felt this way
Really quite hard to say if I've ever felt this way
Like honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones, honey
Honey and trombones
I used to think I got it now I really think I get it
I used to think I got it now I really think I get it
Wouldn't be writing the same songs
If you had never come along

Easy in the Dark

It isn't easy in the dark
It isn't easy in the dark
You're feeling lonely every night
And when each night is through
You still say "I love you"
Though there's no one by your side
You're waiting for the day to come
When every song won't make you cry
But in the meanwhile
Well it's a mean while
Until I'll see you smile
So take my hand
And take up all my time
I think I'll understand
You don't need a reason why
So if the walls are closing in
And you can't get to sleep
And you're wondering how
The way you feel right now
You'll make it through another week
There's no need to pretend
You wanna do this all alone
I've done that a lot
It's lonely at the bottom
Trust me I know
So take my hand
And take up all my time
I think I'll understand
You've got nothing to hide
Give me a call
Or just give me a sign
Because after all
You don't need a reason why
It isn't easy in the dark
Wait
Wait
Pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
