don't pull me apart,
i've been asleep under the sun for so long
in fields of roses...
I'll flourish with the petals in your hair.
we slept in the sand and buried a dance
between our parted lips and magic finger tips
and a castle in the sky.

so what are you waiting for?

don't open me up,
i've been hiding in bouquets
and dreams of starlets
and oceans in july.
resistance and wed my reconnaissance.
can you feel me in your dreams?
or, at least inside your bed.

who stole your heart? who held this flame?
we don't believe in that sort of thing
and we can't catch up with broken legs.
we cast our spells and magic charms,
a castle in the sky to wish for.

leave your tracks across the ballroom floor,
i'll follow your french kiss
and wish on eye lashes for your heart to hold my breath.
(so what are you waiting for?)
hooked on the scent of halos (on the scent of you),
spring liars and beauty queens.
in and out, from town to town (to town)
i'm hunting girls to dance with me.

who stole your heart? who held this flame?
we don't believe in that sort of thing
and we can't catch up with broken legs.
we cast our spells and magic charms,
a castle in the sky to wish for.

I could feel it in the air:
a change of tide or twilight.
when the air gets warm i'll learn to shut my eyes.
I could breathe it through the spring
and sing these months to sleep.
We'll set a kiss when the east coast breathes the west.

you are eyes are so spirited away.

who stole your heart? who held this flame?
we don't believe in that sort of thing
and we can't catch up with broken legs.
we cast our spells and magic charms,
a castle in the sky to wish for.

close your eyes, enchanted, and dance with
the ghosts of the summer heat.
