Could Be

Could be the glow in your eyes or your perfect smile.
Something in the air tonight.
Could be you’ve seen me before on a distant shore.
Will this dawn bring us back to the sea?
With a strung-out behavior we started a fire.
Are we burning down the family tree?

Could be the glow in the sky or your pink-blue eyes.
Something in the world tonight.
Could be you’ve seen me before in some distant war.
Will this dawn bring you back to me.
With a strung-out behavior we started a fire.
Are we burning up the family tree?

We’ve searched the world,
Turned every stone upward to the sky.
We’ve sought it out and dealt within,
Looked everywhere to find ourselves
A little place where we belong.

Could we go somewhere tonight,
Somewhere way beyond anything we thought could be.
Could be our grand final hour or the morning after.
Could be the fat lady will stand up and sing.
With a strung-out behavior we started a fire.

Are we burning down the family tree?
