Illume says the candle that I burn
A reflection in the window
All the way to Point Dume
Illume, like it dances
I am a cliff dweller
From the old school
I like the coastal cities
I like the lights
I like the way the oceans blend
Into the city at night
It's like living on a working river
The coastline is glittering
Like a diamond snake
In a black sky
I'm alone now
With my thoughts
Of how we could make it
Of how we could get out
What we've been through
All of the trauma
The smell of nag champa
Shadow of a stranger
I will not take you for granted
I wouldn't trade you for jade or for diamonds
Not for one minute, not for anything
I need you to be there
Just remember when I am haunted
That I was just so scared
I'm alone now
With my thoughts
Of how we could make it
Of how we could get out
What we've been through
All of the trauma
The smell of nag champa
Shadows of a stranger
What I saw on this journey
I saw history go down
I cannot pretend
That the heartache falls away
It's just like a river
Ooh, it's never ending
I cannot pretend
That the heartache falls away (falls away)
'Cause it's just like a river
It's never ending
It's just like a river
It's never ending
I'm alone now
With my thoughts
Of how we could make it
Of how we could get out
What we've been through
And all of the trauma
The smell of nag champa
Shadow of a stranger
What I saw on this journey (what I saw on this journey)
I saw history go down (I saw history go down)
I cannot pretend (I cannot pretend)
That the heartache falls away (that the heartache falls away)
It's just like a river (it's just like a river)
Ooh, it's never ending (ooh, it's never ending)
I cannot pretend (I cannot pretend)
That the heartache falls away (that the heartache falls away)
Oh I'm alone now
With my thoughts
How we could make it
How we could get out
What we've been through
All of the trauma
The smell of nag champa
Shadows of the strangers
What I saw on this journey
Is what legends are made of
I cannot pretend
That the heartache falls away
It's just like a river
Ooh, it's never ending
No, I cannot pretend
That the heartache falls away
Because it's just like a river
It's never ending
It falls away
Like a river
It's never ending
