One part of me just wants to tell you everything
|
One part just needs the quiet
|
And if I'm lonely here, I'm lonely here
|
And on the telephone
|
You offer reassurance
|
|
I will not take these things for granted
|
|
How can I hold the part of me that only you can carry
|
It needs a strength I haven't found
|
But if it's frightening, I'll bear the cold
|
And on the telephone
|
You offer warm asylum
|
|
I'm listening
|
Flowers in the garden
|
Laughter in the hall
|
Children in the park
|
I will not take these things for granted
|
Anymore
|
|
To crawl inside the wire and feel something near me
|
To feel this accepting
|
That it is lonely here, but not alone
|
And on the telephone
|
You offer visions dancing
|
|
I'm listening
|
Music in the bedroom
|
Laughter in the hall
|
Dive into the ocean
|
Singing by the fire
|
Running through the forest
|
And standing in the wind
|
In rolling canyons
|
|
I will not take these things for granted
|
