Emotion, I turn to sand before I reach the ocean And I wait a thousand years to feel your motion I shut my heart in a little black box Throw away the key and lock Wrap it tight with a pretty pink bow Ride me high like roshambo Emotion, give me that sweet emotion Emotion, like a newborn child crying for his mama's attention Emotion, like a refugee free from a life of detention I ride over dunes and fields Camp at night with my flint and feels Pack ‘em up at the break of dawn Stamp out the fire and carry on Emotion, would you give me that sweet emotion? Emotion, would you give me that sweet emotion? Emotion, like the sun goin' down the San Francisco skyline Emotion, like the fog above the New York City highrise I jump the horse, race up the stairs And at the top unpack my wares Gonna leave my heart at my true love's door Gonna run till I can't run no more Emotion, would you give me that sweet emotion? Emotion, would you give me that sweet emotion?

Well the stars, the stars, Rise over you and under through the distance I wonder what you are, Stuttering and frozen like an infant Then at last, long last, You ask me for a lighter, I didn't have one I looked inside your glass, I saw what I wanted, and I lost ya But you don't find nobody else Until you’ve found yourself Into the wishing well, I will tread light I will tread light Hunting for the docks, I disconnect the dots, my dreams of riches I nearly lost you at the bog, I thought I saw a black dog stirring through the ditches Even the moon was getting on, Too close to lose, too far off to hold onto it When you sang me half that song, Conjuring the language of the Wiccan I loved you as a child, Now I've been reguiled But save your witching smile, While I tread light While I tread light You know the closer I get to you, The farther out I find myself in Boulder They say the key of love is blue, In a dear, in a dance, in adieu, we all fall over But last night at the movies, You slipped me something new, I felt a little bolder When you came inside my room I felt the black dog breathing down my shoulder Inside those New Year's eyes I found no disguise You brush against my size But I tread light I tread light And all I want to do is: Set fire, get higher, inspire you Hot on the merry-go-round Get down, run round in circles Spread like a cancer And set off, get lost, I wanna hop on the train, Get off on another Find love, keep loving something Just like Rolling Thunder I wanna tap dance, I wanna make plans, I wanna take a stand And understand I wanna hold hands, Make romance with you Over and under I wanna have faith, I wanna get saved, And maybe someday I'm gonna harken like an angel Remain unchained, Make change, Make a change, And change, And tread light And tread light And tread light And tread light Of course the sun, the sun Cuts over through the tundras like a jackknife Says "It's done, it's done" Now pack away your mids, your lows, your highlights Though I might stumble through The darkness for a moment or a lifetime When eternity is through I'll meet you singing half songs in the moonlight Whatever happens will No matter how you will Into the wishing well I fell

Tread light And I'll burn my eyes, tread light Light
