|
In the breathless hush of 4 a.m. |
|
In the dark sits a sad cliche. |
|
Cloaked in the navy blue of slowly fading stars |
|
Tell me how this came to be |
|
Sleeplessness talk to me |
|
She'd say over and over again |
|
Fumbling through a cut glass vase |
|
Passing lipstick, cotton spools |
|
Burning jealous pictures of marraiges of friends |
|
You never asked to be |
|
The glutton of sympathy |
|
She says over and over again that this is the end |
|
Cause I see it in your eyes |
|
What you don't know, time to let go |
|
I see it in your eyes |
|
There is so much more out there to be learned |
|
Such mournful words on this snowwhite vacant page |
|
All the lessons that she learns she packs away |
|
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy |
|
She writes over and over again |
|
Tossing turning roll away |
|
Indescision won't you ever make up your mind |
|
Lifetime Nightime wake the day |
|
Cause tomorrow will see if you've had your fill of sympathy |
|
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy? |
|
Don't you know the stars are all fading let the sunshine capture the sparkle of your smile |
