How can you ask me
|
How have I been
|
I think you should know well
|
The shape that I¡¯m in
|
You tell me you wondered
|
If I was okay
|
Well that¡¯s a damn fool thing to say
|
|
The water is rising
|
The water is wide
|
And you¡¯re always standing
|
On the other side
|
And then comes the moment
|
I wake in the dawn
|
With hours to lie here alone
|
|
And you seem so surprised
|
That I¡¯m feeling this way
|
How am I so lonely today
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you
|
You would be lonely too
|
So here¡¯s to the lovers
|
For old times sake
|
Who don¡¯t hold each other
|
To the promise they break
|
And smile through the window
|
And wave on the street
|
¡®Cause that¡¯s all you want now from me
|
|
Should I say something
|
To put you at ease
|
Or should I get down on my knees
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you
|
You would be lonely too
|
If you ever loved me the way I loved you
|
You would be lonely too
|
