Watchman
Friend, come to bed
I wanted until the pretty ones
Had all laid down their heads
And then I said come to bed
You know that I'm yours
When we're the only bodies left
My friend, it want to stay
We can wait for all the other possibilities to fade
And by then it will be late
And I won't say a word and we can go our seperate ways
My friend, don't give it straight
I'd love to see effort of you lying to my face
So lie, lie with me
Because you know I'd like you best
If you were lying through your teeth
Kid, don't kid yourself
You're always watching someone who is watching someone else
Where's the someone always watching you
You looked away from him just so that you could scan the room
And watch, watch your eyes
I tried but I get dizzy trying to follow them side to side
And watch, watch your mouth
I tried my very best but I can't follow what comes out
I only came here to see you see me
I only came here to see you see me
I only came here to see you see me
I only came here to watch you watch me leave
I did my best, to let it rest
No I didn't say a word, but still I could have said much less
I held my tongs you hel the rest
But you held it far to long
And I got in over my head
So friend, I'll give it straight
I always need a hand to hold when it is growing late
So I will lie, lie for you
Because you know that I am yours
When there is nothing elso to do.
