  • Tell me all the things you would change
    I don't pretend to know what you want
    When you come around and spin my top
    Time and again, time and again

    No fire where I lit my spark
    I am not afraid of the dark
    Where your words devour my heart
    And put me to shame, put me to shame

    When your seven worlds collide
    Whenever I'm by your side
    Dust from a distant sun
    Will shower over everyone

    Still so young to travel so far
    Old enough to know who you are
    Wise enough to carry the scars
    Without any blame, there's no one to blame

    It's easy to forget what you learned
    Waiting for the thrill to return
    Feeling your desire burn
    And drawn to the flame

    When your seven worlds collide
    Whenever I'm by your side
    Dust from a distant sun
    Will shower over everyone
    Dust from a distant sun
    Will shower over everyone

    And I'm lying on the table
    Washed out in a flood
    Like a Christian feeling vengeance from above
    I don't pretend to know what you want
    But I offer love

    Seven worlds will collide
    Whenever I'm by your side
    Dust from a distant sun
    Will shower over everyone Writer/s: Neil Mullane Finn
