Auditorium

The first night I arrived here
My palms cracked by the sun
I saw you from the back row of the auditorium
And I knew right from the moment that you walked on stage
A meeting in the courtyard would have to be arranged

And though I was quite taken with the anger in your cause
Years of willful solitude prevented my applause
Oh and though I've been conditioned to avoid the eyes
I knew a life without you would be my own demise

One of the reasons that I gave to you
For my silence was I was caught in a lie
Oh and the season that I lost with you
Was the coldest summer I'd felt in a while

I woke up from a dream that you were gone
You'd think I'd have it figured out by now
But when you broke the news that night
Oh the waiter had to pick me off the ground
