Where the earth shows its bones of wind-broken stone

And the sea and the sky are one

I'm caught out of time, my blood sings with wine

And I'm running naked in the sun

There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees

And the sky is a painful blue

I'd like to look around, but Honey, all I see is you.



The summer city lights will soften the night

Til you'd think that the air is clear

And I'm sitting with friends, where forty-five cents

Will buy another glass of beer

He's got something to say, but I'm so far away

That I don't know who I'm talking to

Cause you just walked in the door, and Honey, all I see is you



(CHORUS)

And I just want to hold you closer than I've ever held anyone before

You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life

Ah, but Honey, what the hell's it for?

After twenty-three years you'd think I could find

A way to let you know somehow

That I want to see your smiling face forty-five years from now.



So alone in the lights on stage every night

I've been reaching out to find a friend

Who knows all the words, sings so she's heard

And knows how all the stories end

Maybe after the show she'll ask me to go 

Home with her for a drink or two

Now her smile lights her eyes, but Honey, all I see is you



(Chorus twice)
