Listen to me partner |
|
I'll speak to you of happiness |
|
I'll tell you about a breakwater |
|
But that was long ago |
|
I guess Now |
|
I'm on a time schedule |
|
I'm sure you are as well |
|
I don't believe in letters and |
|
I never learned to spell either |
|
So you can let on that you knew me the way |
|
I needed to be known |
|
The ghost |
|
I am, I was long ago |
|
I gave my life to a memory of music |
|
And she just turned her head |
|
But wore it well |
|
Listen to me partner |
|
I'll tell you how this life was led |
|
So secretly so quietly |
|
I chase around what doesn't exist |
|
Now I'm on a time schedule |
|
I'm sure you are as well |
|
I don't believe in letters and |
|
I never learned to spell either |
|
So I'll try to look into the eyes of these newborns |
|
And try to see the hope that you see |
|
And not the vacant and desolate shell of experience reflected in me |
|
I gave my life to a memory of music |
|
And she just turned her head |
|
Whoa she just turned her head |
|
But wore it well |
