The Strangest Thing

Come on, dear

Listen here

I've got you where I need you

You look sad

From the feelings you had

Can't you just open up to

The things that break you down

And loneliness that follows you 'round

So, you confound

With sight and sound

And ask the strangest things

Who am I

To reply

And what good is the answer it brings

I hope you know

That when I go

It's not because I want to

If it's all the same

I can blame

The feelings that tell me I want you

I know it's extreme

But in every dream

You can just drift away

The walls might move

And you will disapprove

But it'll happen anyway

When you change your dress

Is it any less

Appealing than what's true

Just understand

What seems beyond your command

Is somewhere inside of you
