[00:09.630] Your life, back in a banner year.
[00:11.970] A blast of light, a brace of cheers.
[00:18.880] A house of wild accolades
[00:21.590] Evaporating on an August night
[00:28.050] I'm looking out into the sound,
[00:30.930] I'm breathing deep, I'm turning around.
[00:36.330] I'm saying,
[00:38.080] 'Do you want to swim out to that island?'
[00:45.680] I'm thinking,
[00:47.180] Touch my wrist - it's shaking
[00:48.990] Just like someday baby when we're older.
[00:55.060] I'm wishing
[00:57.010] Cash will be inside our kisses,
[00:58.800] Someday, maybe, baby when I'm gold.
[01:05.660] Your hair is thin and light
[01:07.760] As a white forest fire in summertime.
[01:15.130] Your throat, where it's exposed, looks like a crime,
[01:18.470] I'll sneak-up slow and whisper quiet.
[01:24.430] Your pretty face looks like an island
[01:27.050] Rising from a sea that's slowly drying.
[01:32.100] When I'm saying,
[01:34.190] 'Do you want to sail out in the silence?'
[01:40.420] I'm asking,
[01:43.540] 'Will you come over here and do me violence?'
[01:52.610] Press your ear up to my wrist
[01:54.900] The blood is racing some way, going wherever,
[02:00.610] I'm saying,
[02:02.280] 'Will you stand up tall and be my shelter?'
[02:11.940] How will we go, what do you think?
[02:23.130] Into the dust? Into the drink?
[02:30.330] You slipped your fears into my head,
[02:32.290] Some midnight freeway ride along with Jennifer.
[02:39.790] Hotels, jails, hospital details.
[02:42.190] The highway hugs the water.
[02:48.780] I had to cross a field of screaming fire
[02:51.970] To see the moonlight on the river.
[02:56.110] I'm saying,
[02:58.510] 'Do you want to come and make me shiver?'
[03:04.990] I'm thinking,
[03:07.780] Squeeze my arm and feel it pull away like
[03:11.220] Someday, baby, when we differ.
[03:35.760] I'll tell you what I didn't say.
[03:37.670] I'll tell you about the way I really miss him.
[03:45.130] You tell them what you want to tell them.
[03:47.520] Tell them about the way you really loved her.
[03:54.240] And we'll shake it, shake it,
[03:56.260] Shake it off, and take another,
[04:03.720] Cause no one, no one
[04:06.530] Is gonna stop me
[04:08.280] From loving my brother,
[04:13.310] Cause no one, no one
[04:15.430] Is gonna stop me
[04:17.370] From loving my brother,
[04:22.930] No one, no one
[04:24.490] Is gonna stop me
[04:26.700] From loving my brother,
[04:32.320] No one, no one
[04:34.130] Is gonna stop me
[04:36.000] From loving my brother,
[04:41.780] No one, no one
[04:43.590] Is gonna stop me
[04:45.490] From loving my brother,
[04:49.940] Not even my brother
