Machinery of the Heavens - Patrick Watson

Got to keep on waiting for the morning hours

Watch them running by to where they’re going

Cause when you’re upside down those nuts and bolts feel awfully strange

Are crowds of moments feeling all the same

Are you tired in the morning do you shout out loud

Got to keep on running when you’re down

Gotta get out

Got to keep away from all those empty hearts

That suck up all your love and all your cares

Best to trade it all in for those old dancing shoes

And get rid of all the weight that has been holding you down

Keep your toes from tapping on the ground

But we didn’t know where to go from here

No we didn’t know where to go from here

No we didn’t know where to go from here

Cause it all felt wrong

So we best be moving on

You better get out

In a crowd of people looking for a spark to catch

To put back in our mouths to set a flame

Cause I didn’t know what to say to you

No I didn’t know what to say to you

No I didn’t know what to say to you

I was just about to pack it in

But then I heard the news that you’d be here soon

And so I sang ah ah ah

You brought it back to me

You gave it back to me

You brought me back the love
