ADRIAN BELEW - May 1, 1990 lyrics

I lived inside a tear

Time magnified my fear

That the world around me

Was only getting more severe

On may 11990

Something changed inside me

And I saw the stars align

And I knew that it was meant to be

I didn't know at the time

My heart was on the line

But the world was turning

And suddenly the sun was shining

On may 11990

Something changed inside me

And I saw the stars align

And I knew that it was meant to be

In a city by the sun

Maybe when you saw me then

You thought I had the world at my feet

Maybe when you looked again

You saw how I was empty

In a city by the sun

On may 11990

Something changed inside me

And I saw the stars align

And I knew that it was meant to be

In a city by the sun
