Recor

Watching them living
And I'm asking
"Yes, what have I done?"
Because I feel that I'm slipping away
Just watching the water go by

I believe that I can do anything
If only I knew what I wanted
But oh, I still need to know
And boy, oh, I need to know soon
Where do I go?

I'm aware I have to forge ahead
Because I cannot afford to lose myself
Because it's all that I have left in me
And he knows what it's not going to be
It's not the end
Just watching the water go by

Sitting in a lonely room
In a nearby fire
I bid

They may have escaped
Or may have scraped
But I know she likes it when anything gets

Laid back
Enjoy your view
Your sadness will ride by me somehow
It is taking a while for you to breathe

I've been taken for a story told
Left unheard
Echoed out
Oh, don't you see?
There's nothing for me
I'll fall apart

Lay back
Enjoy your view
Don't let it remind you that I was once your own
What would you have liked me to be?

Wise men came
Here one more time
To stand beside you
Perhaps to guide you
Through the night

And one of them said
"Don't close your eyes. Won't see the light. Deny your sight. Because it's all in your mind."

When I'm all by myself
I could never find my truce
When I'm all by myself
I could never find my truce here
No

How does it feel to be where you are?
With the little that you have
And the little that you've had
Would you blame it all on me?

Close your eyes
Think of mine
Do you still think they love you?
Baby don't say it's another lie

And I know
That my eyes believe
That my thoughts belong to no one else but you
It's all you
I stayed alive for promised love

Did you find love away from pain?
And I know it was a long wait to be alone under your name
You did what you could to stay aground
You did what you could to stay aground

Things have come
And go yet again
But I, I have longed to touch you
I've stayed alive for promised love
