Tony Lucca - Dublin Blue

Well, i stayed awake `til the sun came up 
like some distant memory. 
and i watched as the night and it`s wisdom
disappeared right before me. 

I was picturing you in that dublin blue 
and i reached out in vain once again, 
knowing that you`re there and i`m here 
and there`s so much out there in between.

Like a post card i could try hard 
somehow describing just what i feel... 
..but its far too real. 

Staring out at the ocean 
listening to the traffic below. 
everybody`s fueled by frustration, 
still its only love making everyone go. 

The waves crash down i hear the sound 
of the time-keeping tide, once again 
reminding me its only life 
and i should feel free just to be. 

Like a stonewall i could stand tall 
waving my flag claiming how i feel...
...but its far too real. 

As seagulls soar through the sunset they 
leave their silhouettes of wind driven wings. 
i quietly watch what remains of the day 
and i listen as my soul sings. 

Shadows run long like a sad song 
and the night claims my tears once again. 
as i return to all i`ve learned 
somehow i finally see the light. 

Like an old jar i could try hard 
somehow containing just what i feel...
...but its far too real. 

I stayed awake `til the sun came up 
like some distant memory. 
and i watched as the night and her wisdom 
disappeared right before me.
