You

You're talking, I'm listening
You're walking, I'm watching
You've gone and I'll miss you
This feeling inside tells me to go
But not all things have been said, though
I wish I could borrow a smile for a little while
And cover this heart which seems to be so frail
When in fact is so strong, disappointed by no absence
Burning through obstacles with no kind of incense.

You're smiling, I'm following
You're frowning, I'm asking myself why
You've gone but I won't search for you
There's no point in caring for you no more
When I have given myself up so many times before
I guess I've saved too many feelings for nothing
When maybe I wasn't actually made for loving
But I've been changing time and time again
And I still ask myself why I even bother.

You're dreaming, I'm still awake
You're distant, I'm stringing myself along
You've gone but I'm still standing here
I've been a child and waited on the line
For something that was never even mine
Just for a while, I thought we were one
When in fact the cards were already done
I've loved and I've lost and there's no stone heart I could borrow
And instead I've drowned in meaningless words and sorrow.

For a while, maybe it was my imagination
That made me believe I saw you through
I guess I've taken what were actually lies as being true
There was nothing more I could've done
I just thought it was meant to be you.
