I finally gave myself the time to see you
I finally gave myself the time to see you
I finally gave myself the time to see you for a while
If only we could see past the veneer, we'd see another side of you
Simone said she would think about not seeing me
Simone said she would think about not seeing me
Simone said she would think about not seeing me for a while
I hung around with her for forty days and forty nights, it was a wilderness
If only you would stop, look, and listen
If only you would stop, look, and listen
If only you would stop, look, and listen you'd be fine
But being deaf and being blind just seems to be the way you spend your time
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Your words are true and all I do is dream
Spent summer in the city of my childhood
Spent summer in the city of my childhood
Spent summer in the city of my childhood for old times
But there's no going back for me, the faces had all changed, I was a stranger
He made the same mistake until he got wiser
He made the same mistake until he got wiser
By then it was too late and he despised her, what a crime
If he was cruel to be kind, he would've saved the trouble and the time
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Your words are true and all I do
Think of you, your words are true and all I do
Think of you, your words are true and all I do is dream
I live alone the silence, it can make you
I live alone the silence, it can take you
I live alone the silence, it can break you after a while
Not long ago I made a deal, the ghosts around the house all seem to like me
My life is falling down, I am surrounded
My life is falling down, I am confounded
My life is falling down, I am dumbfounded, what a mess
I lay back silent as a cat and let you work your mysteries of healing
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Being alone, it's not a problem when I think of you
Your words are true and all I do
Think of you, your words are true and all I do
Think of you, your words are true and all I do is dream
