There was a time
You opened up every doorway You didn't mind if everything Wasn't your way Don't pull away That goes against what you told me I look in your eyes I realize what you've sold me Is love in a vacuum Love in a vacuum I think you've changed But you insist that That's not true You look so strange, so distant That you're hardly you Now I can see How you have been acting different You say it's me But I know That it isn't It's love in a vacuum Love in a vacuum And that's not enough Love in a vacuum You will be lonely You'll be the only one who feels this way You will be lonely If you leave me alone You will be lonely You'll be the only one who feels this way It's just not enough And just wait You will be lonely Love in a vacuum Love in a vacuum And that's not enough Love in a vacuum |

I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
but I'm frightened of the things I might find Oh, there must be something he's thinking of to tear him away when I tell him that I'm falling in love why does he say hush hush keep it down now voices carry I try so hard not to get upset because I know all the trouble I'll get oh, he tells me tears are something to hide and something to fear and I try so hard to keep it inside so no one can hear hush hush keep it down now voices carry He wants me but only part of the time He wants me if he can keep me in line hush hush keep it down now voices carry hush hush, darling, she might overhear oh, no-voices carry he said shut up he said shut up oh God can't you keep it down voices carry I wish he would let me talk |

Here I go again
Making promises If I tell you no It still sounds like yes You know the rest Do I have to say it? Am I in too deep? Can I still confess? When you trusted me That was just a guess I guess You know the rest You know the rest Do I have to say it? Well, I warned you once But without success And I just escape With my heart A mess Know the rest (It's not so easy) You know the rest (It's not that easy) Do I have to say it? You know the rest. |

Same town as it's ever been
If there's changes somewhere They've occurred from within Streets pass and hold up to me Every corner defined By the places you'd be But no one is watching you now No one is watching you now Like I did Even the longest of days You could make disappear By the look on your face We used to drive into town And the eyes of the girls Followed you all around But no one is watching you now I know no one is watching you now Like I did Forty-eight hours pass And I'm longing to stay Forty-eight hours pass And watching you, watching you Is ages away Something has torn me apart Oh but what do I care About watching my heart I know that sadness bleeds through And my sadness for me Is now sadness for you 'Cause no one is watching you now I know no one is watching you now No one is watching you now Like I did |

You should take a walk
But it's just the same wherever you go You just wish the ghost was gone So you make some calls But it's talking while you're wanting to go You're just ringing phones for fun You can always make a new excuse to cry But you don't have to use it on yourself So why spend your sadness now Save it up for me on Sunday And why is lonely all you have When love is what you'll find on Sunday You might guard your heart But it's awfully fun to have it broken Or at least to leave a bruise It becomes an art Though the rules of which are rarely spoken By the lucky ones who can choose So your pain becomes another souvenir And your souvenirs become your world So why spend your sadness now Save it up for me on Sunday And why is lonely all you have When love is what you'll find on Sunday Why spend your sadness now Save it up for me on Sunday And why is lonely all you have When love is what you'll find on Sunday |

I'd like to take her home
But no one walks where she does She goes into the cold Wearing two unmatched gloves Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs) Maybe it's (something she works out alone) And if I don't hold her up Will she just fall down? She says she feels fine She says she feels right at home But I can hear her cry When I leave the room, oh Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs) Maybe it's (something she works out alone) And if I don't hold her up Will she just fall down? Well, some essential part Is missing that I just can't replace I know that these things are a matter of grace And on her birthday I'll Get a watch to keep her time And I'll stay up with her When she forgets to wind it Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs) Maybe it's (something she works out alone) She says that (she only needs a change of heart) Too bad that (parts alone are not enough) And if I don't hold her up And if I don't hold her up And if I don't hold her up Will she just fall down? |

It's what he wants but he won't say
He'd rather make-believe I want to say goodbye It's down to her although I know She never made him happy, now she makes him cry He cannot work, he cannot think Beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone I'm going down I cannot breathe He doesn't think to leave me anything at all David denies that he'll ever change his mind (but he always changes) David denies - but he's left his love behind (left his love behind) It's what he wants, I'm almost sure And I can hardly stand him saying it's not so And so I'll wait and so I'll hope Somehow I can convince him not to let me go David denies that he'll ever change his mind (but he always changes) David denies - but he's left his love behind (left his love behind) David denies that he'll ever change his mind (but he always changes) David denies - but he's left his love behind (left his love behind) David denies that he'll ever change his mind (but he always changes) David denies - but he's left his love behind (left his love behind) And so I'll wait and so I'll hope Somehow I can convince him And so I'll wait and so I'll hope Somehow I can convince him not to let me go |

Living on silence
Living by the book You get it to a science Of living on one good look So put out all the fires And blow away the smoke I'm getting pretty tired Of living on hope So what about love, baby What about making room for two What about love, baby What about you Living on daydreams Walking in my sleep And nothing is as it seems When you're in so deep So put out all the fires And blow away the smoke Unless you're getting tired Of living on hope So what about love, baby What about making room for two What about love, baby What about you So what about love, baby What about making room for two What about love, baby What about you What about you What about you What about me |

We talked on the second of December
And I told her that our chances were slender And this conversation sounded so familiar Like a welcome mat - a broken blender We walked to a restuarant she'd been to And I looked at her while she was looking into Someone else's mirror - seeing if she's someone too Giving me that deja vu I look back And I see that same old rag (?) He's calling my name He says you're gonna do it again Time is all we need, she finally let out But I see her drawing maps if she can get out Now I wonder which of us will get the axe out And do the final blow I look back And I see that same old rag (?) He's calling my name He says you're gonna do it again Says you're gonna do it again I saw you I said this time it's different I'll know better But I can't keep from loving I have heard that one before |
