Tried to suspend my disbelief
oh, how I tried
But, I don't know darling
It always comes back to you
Who are you anyway
how do you know the things you know
when no one has told you so
If only you would write the next verse
unrehearsed
and unfiltered
not think it command
or sleight of hand.dear
Never mind
you always get iy
and that's the thing
should i go on
or leave it at this
maybe we couldn't get past
the first kiss
I'm sure that's it
a crossroads
an impasse
a stop along the way
forget it
didn't mean it
You'll never believe it
and neither will I
so I'll just be me
without you
and go on
wait and see
I'm as patient as patient
can be
I tell you're doubting me
so i ask
how it can be
when you won't talk to me
you're wed to a memory
life in the past lane
but you can't live in a memory
that has something to prove
or a daydream
that has something to lose
these things you cling to so well
maybe there your way of letting go
I don't know
or just
show and tell

i Know I'm sometimes rude
and don't seem to care
It's when you left your heart out
with few exceptions, dear

I want to write about the light
and how it follows you
wherever you go
but I'm defensive and rude instead
and so
there's no completion
just me
and somewhere out there
there isΒ Β you
i wrote this song for you
