How can you ask me |
|
How have I been |
|
I think you should know well |
|
The shape that I'm in |
|
You say that you wondered |
|
If I was o.k. |
|
Well that's a damn fool thing to say |
|
The water is risin' |
|
The water is wide |
|
And your always standin' |
|
On the other side |
|
And then comes the moment |
|
I wake before dawn |
|
With hours to lie here alone |
|
And you seem so surprised |
|
That I'm feelin' this way |
|
How am I so lonely today |
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you |
|
You would be lonely too |
|
So here's to the lovers |
|
For old times sake |
|
Who don't hold each other |
|
To the promise they break |
|
And smile through the window |
|
And wave on the street |
|
'Cause that's all you want now from me |
|
Should I say something |
|
To put you at ease |
|
Or should I get down on my knees |
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you |
|
You would be lonely too |
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you |
|
You would be lonely too |
