Cocoon Lyrics - Bernard Butler

I think about nearly nothing else when I'm on my own 

Solitude is freezing the life from my bones 

Looks like the same thing's happening again 

It's getting strange 'round here, I don't feel the same 

If you could only see me today 

Cocoon you laugh in my face 

We've gotta learn to communicate 

Get real, I will always be this way 

Paint the lines in gray 

So, I think about nearly nothing else, still I'm on my own 

Staying in ain't chic when you've got no home 

Looks like this frame was made for me 

You could climb across the rooftops, then you'd see 

Through the burning sash, I'm free 

Cocoon you laugh in my face 

We've gotta learn to communicate 

Get real, I will always be this way 

Paint the lines in gray 

Hey you, I'm on your case 

You remind me of lovers I used to chase 

Through the golden songs from a golden age 

Let me love you today 

So, I think about life outside this open shell 

And then, any other man would think I've done so well 

Ten years in masterpiece of gray 

Then you'd get used to your presents day by day 

Get used to your presents day by day 

Get used to your presents day by day 

Get used to your presents day by day 

Get used to your presents day by day 

Day by day, day by day, day by day, day by day, day by day
