Like a thistle on a tree, like the sparkle on the sea. You were made for glory. And it's no wonder why you're here. For all to see. . But like a thorn on my flesh your beauty holds me.
I saw a rubber band stretched 'til the point of breaking. White as a desert flower and dry as a pail of sand. Oh, you look so tired of something. That I don't understand.
If I'm saying nothing. Won't you let me speak?. If I'm saying nothing. Won't you let me in?. . The truth of what we have is. Blowing through the trees.
Are you wondering. Wondering if I like you?. Or are you wondering. If I care at all. . 'Cause all that you're getting. All that you're getting is glances.
Remember that one night on the town. We were linking arms and skipping around. Singing songs of love, songs of love. . You could be my unintended friend.
You cannot hug a shadow's neck. You cannot kiss a silhouette. But I've done both. Time and time again. . You reel me in like rain on a tin roof. When I open the door to let you in.
