I finally gave myself the time to see you I finally gave myself the time to see you I finally gave myself the time to see you for a while
If only we could see past the veneer We'd see another side of you
Simone said she would think about not seeing me Simone said she would think about not seeing me Simone said she would think about not seeing me for a while
I hung around with her for forty days and forty nights It was a wilderness
If only you would stop look and listen If only you would stop look and listen If only you would stop look and listen you'd be fine
But being deaf and being blind Just seems to be the way you spend your time
Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Your words are true and all I do is dream Spent summer in the city of my childhood Spent summer in the city of my childhood Spent summer in the city of my childhood for old times
But there's no going back for me The faces had all changed I was a stranger
Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Your words are true and all I do is dream If only we could see past the veneer We'd see another side of you
I live alone the silence It can take you I live alone the silence It can make you I live alone the silence It can break you after a while
Not long ago I made a deal The ghosts around the house all seem to like me
My life is falling down I am surrounded
My life is falling down I am confounded My life is falling down I am dumbfounded What a mess
So I lay back silent as a cat And let you work your mysteries of healing
Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Being alone it's not a problem when I think of you Your words are true and all I do is Think of you your words are true and all I do is Think of you your words are true and all I do is dream If only we could see past the veneer We'd see another side of you
