So silly of me I am putting on a good front numb, drowning in the sea a lullaby and a wish good night Lying on the bed listening to slow murmurs watching the wind blow through the old tree hear the howling, banging on the tin roof Cold winter afternoon hiding in disguise mind in a daze pleasantly my demise relish the sweet sound the creaking of a door, somewhere in another room soft foot steps on floor in the moon-lit room A melody I hum a song from me to you a solo dance with no audience the sense of content from being alone a smile that no once sees a secret whispered to the empty house The sight of dandelions spin me in the past picking flowers for my mother, on a hot summer's day screaming, crying, scratching from the hives it was worth it just to see her smile for a while Accidentally impinge a memory seeing an old face on stranger the smallest though so valuable sending me into trance So silly of me I am putting on a good front numb, drowning in the sea a lullaby and a wish good night

So silly of me I am putting on a good front numb, drowning in the sea a lullaby and a wish good night Lying on the bed listening to slow murmurs watching the wind blow through the old tree hear the howling, banging on the tin roof Cold winter afternoon hiding in disguise mind in a daze pleasantly my demise relish the sweet sound the creaking of a door, somewhere in another room soft foot steps on floor in the moon-lit room A melody I hum a song from me to you a solo dance with no audience the sense of content from being alone a smile that no once sees a secret whispered to the empty house The sight of dandelions spin me in the past picking flowers for my mother, on a hot summer's day screaming, crying, scratching from the hives it was worth it just to see her smile for a while Accidentally impinge a memory seeing an old face on stranger the smallest though so valuable sending me into trance So silly of me I am putting on a good front numb, drowning in the sea a lullaby and a wish good night
