From the recording Is Anybody Listening?
Lyrics
We were alone in the garden
I found it rather alarming
You didn’t run when I told you
About all the things that I’d done
How did you make this impression?
Swore that you had good intentions
Now when you leave
I hope that you’re not gone for too long
Your voice is stuck in my head now
I’m fine with chasing it around
Dive to the depths of the memories
And cradle them soft in my hands
I reach for you when I’m dreaming
I never questioned the meaning
But if I told you, would you understand?
Your soul it speaks to me
Like some epiphany
I was too blind to see
You’re out and moving on
But I know I’ll be here for you when you’re done
Cause it’s all that I want
Could there be anything worse
Than falling for you again
When I’ve already tied my shoes
And walked away like a friend?
And if it’s only ever this,
This push and pull I fight against
Then I’ll accept the way it is
And I’ll be here when it ends
And when my words flow from me
Paint the walls against my will
I hope that you’ll love me still
I hope you’ll think of me gently
Like a wave brushes the ocean
Or the sky is painted black
I know that I’ll keep coming back
To you.
