Sometimes I feel like I never knew you
Sometimes I feel you in my blood
Sometimes I get home sick and weary
‘Cause I don’t know where you are

Sometimes I see the world as a diamond
Sometimes a bucket full of shit
Sometimes I place us both above it
Sometimes I feel we drown in it

And ever since you left here
I keep my eyes open for signs
to see you ended up in a good place
And ever since you left here
I keep your picture on the piano
My dreams are always open for you to come over

Seconds come, and seconds leave
Turning into minutes, days and weeks
To summer nights ???
I’m still standing, I’m still right here

You know your brother talked about you
He said he knew you wanted this
I only met him once or twice
He seemed nice, but somewhat distorted

And your husband sings about you
In alcoholic melodies
He comes around here now and then
But I’ve slipped away from him

And ever since you left here
There’s not much to spin the world around
I looked and I found nothing’s ???
It seems thay’re building Babylon towers
Any direction that I turn
I look and I see the world it scares me

Was it like this for you?
Did you scream until your face turned blue?
After all you think you got away with
Second by second, minute by minute
Your’e fading, your’e fading, your’e fading
it’s such a shame
(Seconds come, and seconds leave
turning into minutes, days and weeks
I look and I find I can’t find nothing)

And ever since you got the world
???
Without you I don’t know what to do
But I hang on, hang on, hang on
