Eyes and ears open to whom I may meet. Questions and answers, smile and repeat.
Tattoos form stories we all can endear, but I’d much rather hear what you love and you fear.
A personal list caused by one little kiss, a tear from a loved one, a glare to a fist,
All have their endings and I’ve had my share, it’s too bad I sing to repair.
Sometimes I walk just to see who passes me by. Passes me by.
Faces and places they go become things that I write, Things that I write.
Sometimes I feel like a ghost who longs for a life. Longs for a life again.
But then I remember the faces that put out my light the faces that lied.
And then I know why.
An outfit that falls by the waist, a plan in it’s place, my heart won it’s very first race.
Held but I feel out of touch. Enough is enough. Every why needs a what. And every what needs a
Who what where why is it I sit by quiet while lives live their lows, and the highs are all blown by the wind. If you sing from within, tears roll your chin and you feel it again.
Sometimes I walk just to see who passes me by. Passes me by.
Faces and places they go become things that I write, Things that I write.
Sometimes I feel like a ghost who longs for a life. Longs for a life again.
But then I remember the faces that put out my light the faces that lied.
And then I know why
Sometimes I walk just to see who passes me by. Passes me by.
Faces and places I’ve lost. All left behind. Frozen in time.
