Tell Me What You See In Me Lyrics - Strawbs - Strawbs

My ship sails in 

On a cloud of broken promises 

It's just not true 

Not a single word she says 

Time will tell 

Whether I can change my ways 

It might take years 

It might even take always. 

Tell me what you see in me 

And I'll tell you what I see in you. 

Your picture melts 

Before my tired eyes 

And all it leaves 

Is just a trace of paradise 

You'll change again 

That's what I've been told 

But don't take long 

Or I might get too old. 

Take it easy 

But take it slow 

For who knows which way next 

That wind will blow 

Time goes by 

Just as quickly as I want it to 

And I'll make out 

Like I never knew.
