She says, "I'm getting that lonely sinking feeling,
|
You know what I mean?"
|
With his hand on her back he's thinking,
|
"Where does that leave me?"
|
Just when I think I've uncovered the secret
|
To peace and tranquility
|
That lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
|
|
He says, "I'm seeing those doubt filled
|
Questioning eyes
|
And I can't believe it's true"
|
With her head in her hands she sighs,
|
"It's me, not you"
|
|
Just when I thought that I'd discovered the joy
|
Of loving one so completely
|
That lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
|
|
Here in this silent room we wait on ancient ritual
|
Staring at our hearts
|
As if they were two caged animals
|
If I am the first to unlock those rusty doors
|
Will I be the first found bleeding on the floor?
|
|
She says, "I'm getting that lonely sinking feeling,
|
You know what I mean?"
|
With his hand on her back he's thinking,
|
"Where does that leave me?"
|
|
Just when I think I've uncovered the secret
|
To peace and tranquility
|
That lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
|
|
Just when I thought that I'd discovered the joy
|
Of loving one so completely
|
That lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
|
That lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
