Erik Segel – My Elyan lyrics

When the stars are there,
Covering this place with their
Twinkling light of ages,
As the rage within some pages of our book,
And with the sounds of town,
The music of the planets falling down,
We set the rythm and shove our way
Through a soundtrack to make love.

Run, my Elyan,
I've seen the past aiming at me,
Just like a spear in search of relief.
Don't run, my Elyan,
Now, separate ways,
But a street heard me say:
"tie me to you for the next million days."

In the early hours,
With a white-blue light,
You see the morning's ours,
And there is no greater might
Than leaving the window open,
And have the lovers chilled,
Bodies bare into the wind,
On top of some poetic hill.
And with the drops and tons,
Of commitment, of laws,
Of an oath, the undone,
We set the rhythm and shove our way
Through a soundtrack to make love.

Run, my Elyan,
I've felt the words at breakneck speed,
Trapped in a mouth that no longer speaks.
Don't run, my Elyan,
That I'm godless you say,
But I knelt and I prayed:
"don't let me go, even though I have to escape."

With the morning silence,
And the scent of soil and grass,
Motionless on the balcony,
And you won't dare to ask
If I'll take all my fears and
I'll pile them into a heap,
I know your will could burn them,
But it's always raining here.
And when the town wakes up,
With a car on the street,
And the sparrows above,
We set the rhythm and shove our way
Through a soundtrack to make love.

Run, my Elyan,
I drove today close by your place,
Now I'm the music for you and someone else.
Don't run, my Elyan,
I'll speak no more, for all has been said,
Lay down to sleep, may this song be your bed.
