Ray, as of today |
|
I can't say things will ever be the same |
|
And that could be a shame |
|
'Cause though I think I know |
|
Another lonely exile when I see one |
|
And you appear to be one |
|
Still... |
|
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found |
|
If you've got it to spare |
|
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel |
|
'Cause I ought to be there |
|
And Ray, what can I say |
|
You don't know me and it's just wishful thinking |
|
To keep myself from sinking |
|
And hence, no evidence |
|
To support any theory I have handy |
|
That you could understand me |
|
And so... |
|
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found |
|
If you've got it to spare |
|
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel |
|
'Cause I ought to be there |
|
('Cause you're as bad off as me) |
|
And Ray, can we repay |
|
Ourselves for days that we've |
|
lost through indecision |
|
With one of recognition |
|
If so, then here I go |
|
'Cause some things you know |
|
And some you just believe in |
|
And hope it comes out even |
|
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found |
|
If you've got it to spare |
|
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel |
|
'Cause I ought to be there |
|
I ought to be there (x 2) |
