Neil Finn
Private Universe
[Verse 1]
No time, no place to talk about the weather
Promise of love is hard to ignore
Who said the chance wasn't getting any better
Labor of love is ours to endure

[Verse 2]
Highest branch on the apple tree
It was my favorite place to be
I could hear them breaking free
But they could not see me

[Chorus]
I will run for shelter
Endless summer lift the curse
It feels like nothing matters
In our private universe

[Verse 3]
I have all I want, is that simple enough?
A whole lot more I'm thinking of
Every night about six o'clock
Birds come back to the pond to talk
They talk to me, birds to talk to me
If I go down on my knees
[Chorus]
And I will run for shelter
Endless summer lift the curse
It feels like nothing matters
In our private universe
It feels like nothing matters
In our private universe

[Bridge]
And it's a pleasure that I have known
And it's a treasure that I have gained

It's a tight squeeze, but I won't let go
Time is on the table and the dinner's cold

[Chorus]
And I will run for shelter
Endless summer lift the curse
Feels like nothing matters
In our private universe
And I will run for shelter
Endless summer lift the curse
Feels like nothing matters
In our private universe
