I've been locked out I've been locked in But I always seem to come back again When you're in that room What do you do? I know that I will have you in the end
And the clouds they are crying on you And the birds are offering up their tunes In a shack as remote as a mansion You escape into a place where nothing moves
I've been locked out And I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth I waited so long for the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back
And the hills are as soft as a pillow And they cast a shadow on my bed And the view when I look through my window Is an altarpiece I'm praying to for the living and the dead
Twin valley shines in the morning sun I send a message out to my only one
And I've been locked out and I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth I waited so long for the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back
And I work with the bees and the honey And every night I circle like the moon And it's a act of simple devotion But it can take forever when you've got something to prove
