• I don't want you thinking that I am obsessing
    Forgive me, my dear, if you think I'm transgressing
    It's a long time to wait, out here all alone
    It's a long time to wait when you're not coming home
    I am haunted at night with my dreams of you
    You spit out the sun with a beautiful hue
    I can almost touch, I can almost believe
    But this ache that you left doesn't have a reprieve
    Do you ever give a thought to what we could make?
    Do you ever believe this is a mistake?
    It had crossed my mind from time to time
    That maybe there's no end to our flow and rhyme
    That maybe through the ages you were there all along
    Buried in my head like the heart of a song
    So if I sing, if I sing, and I shout
    Will my soul's cry coax you out?
    Can my voice allure you like a mermaid's tune?
    Will you follow me faithfully like the sailors do?
    Or will you fall on the jetties, will you crash out at sea?
    Will a pretty woman's eyes make you forget me?
    I guess it's a game of catch and retrieve
    It's almost a love story, if you choose to believe
