Elsewhere

[Verse 1]

I love the time and in between

The calm inside me

In the space where I can breathe

I believe there is a distance I have wandered

To touch upon the years of

Reaching out and reaching in

Holding out, holding in

[Chorus]

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it long as

I can be left here to linger in silence

If I choose to

Would you try to understand?

[Verse 2]

I know this love is passing time

Passing through like liquid I am

I'm drunk in my desire

But I love the way you smile at me

I love the way your hands reach out and

Hold me near

I believe, I

[Chorus]

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it long as

I can be left here to linger in silence

If I choose to

Would you try to understand?

[Verse 3]

Oh the quiet child

Awaits the day when she can break free

The mold that clings like desperation

Mother can't you see I've got

To live my life the way I feel is

Right for me

Might not be right for you but it's

Right for me

Oh

[Chorus]

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it long as

I can be left here to linger in silence

If I choose to

Would you try to understand it?

I would like to linger here in silence

If I choose to

Would you understand it?

Would you try?

[Outro]

Would you try to understand?
