Gasoline & Mirrors

Lyrics for Gasoline & Mirrors

Looking like a butterfly You're looking like petals in A hurricane wind In the sunlight you shimmer like gasoline Stains in the wells of rain On the same walk that took me to you Shining like a motor car You're looking like fire in A field of flowers In the moonlight you glisten like fireflies' Eyes in a hall of mirrors On the same night that made me take to you As I followed the line of your gaze I could see through the smoke and the grass To the grave of a master Singing like a nightingale You're sounding like bells in A cave of gypsum In the city you cut through the noise Of the sirens and engines and people In the same street that brought me to you Smelling like a blossom tree You're filling the skies with A cloud of wonder In the still light you sparkle like driftwood Fires on the shores of the land On the same isle that made me fly to you As I followed your tracks in the sand I could see through the smoke and the dunes To the grave of a master
