I call her up at midnight
say I'm feeling scared
boy you've got to let it go
I tell her what we've got is so right
can it last out there
in this world you never know
then I close my eyes and I wait
was he a painter
underground major
wasn't he conspiring with ralph nader
sunday afternoons in central park
was he a writer
a freedom fighter
did he make your world a little brighter
mondays after da
looking over the edge
I can almost see you smile
but I can't be too sure
looking to the light
I can almost hear you call
but I can't be too sure
please don't leave me here alone
it's getting dark

Last night I heard the sweetest words
But if I wasn't' drinking
I might have remembered more of what she said
There were sounds of promise
And shades of grace
I've been down and I've been waiting
H
Once again I just can't get it straight
Wondering if wandering is my fate
But don't lose hope in me quite yet
'cause help must be on the way, any day
From my head to my heart
can't seem to find a way
seems the morning has got you down
a gray window in a small town
don't you worry darling
don't you worry about it darling
this is how I keep the sky from falling
so hold on to me
I will try to keep t
Nobody could hurt me like I know she could hurt
me
but there's nothing in this world that I want
more
Nobody could take me to the places that she takes
me
Places that I've never been before
With my eye
could you speak a little louder
cause I thought I heard you say
that you need me
and you're coming back to stay
I guess it's harder to say what's on your mind
when you haven't told
the truth at any t
you never smile
the way you used to do
I see you trying
but it's just not you
what is wrong
and what is right
Marvin said he tried
he just couldn't get through
maybe it's a line
he's just not used
I don't know what's happening to me
I can't remember things I used to believe
I caught myself just the other day
stealing color from words and leaving them gray
Yeah, I've fallen down a time or two

guess who came by
and asked about you last night
asked if you were seeing someone else
it's no big thing
so how have you been doing
I'm kind of seeing someone new myself
are you listening close enoug
You ought to know by now that I don't wait
around
Drag my heels hold my breath and hang out
underground
You think I think too much, I think we'll wait
and see
From here to there I'll take a piece of all
It's lonely here in outerspace
The nearest stars are miles away
But I believe I'm on to something big
I've only come to not be found
To circle high above the ground
And watch everyone else for a chang
There was nothing down in my little town
No one I could be
Nobody there in the empty square
Soon to include me
So I borrowed myself a stolen van
And I got myself to where I am
I made my escape while
I stare alone
for no reason at all
I could've had someone with me
but didn't think to call
and I'm definately bored
and I sit with the cure
I know I want to go
yet my mind must know something more
The sky has lost it's color
The sun has turned to grey
At least that's how it feels to me
Whenever you're away
I crawl up in the corner
As I watch the minutes pass
Each one brings me closer to
The t
