R. Dafremen
Just wanted to talk to you
Because I'm feeling all the time these days
Like something's broke
And I want to fix it
To somehow make it new
That's what I ought to do
Instead I pass the time away
All choked up holding hands and waiting
For some kind of sign from you
Can you feel it?
Like a bitter pill upon our lips
As your touch drops from my fingertips
When you turn to walk away
Can you feel it?
Like a familiarness gone missing
Like a cold impassioned distance
Growing closer day by day
There's no doubt that something's disappeared
How did it get this way?
I suppose the blame is all wrapped up
In fickle human nature
In loving leaving at it's leisure
Time-tested loneliness in waiting
Finally comes into its own
Is that the deal?
Is that the stoniness I feel
When you say you love me?
When I say I love you?
Can you feel it?
As we turn to face our destinies
Can't help but feel the best of me
Got caught up in the part
Can you feel it?
Approaching fall that follows summer
What we somehow knew was coming
Even from the very start
Don't they all end up this way?
Isn't that the gist of it?
Ain't it in the cliff notes kid?
Isn't that the way the story goes?
Anticlimactic I suppose
Both heroes getting bored
And finally moving on
Will I be moving on?
Seems like I must now don't it baby?
Seems like I've got no you to cling to
Just memories of love gone by
The lingering sweet summertime
A habit-forming hand to hold.
Can you feel it?
We were immortal for a time
But now we're leaving that behind
To face mortality alone
Can you feel it?
It's the dirt outside the hole
The hollow filling of a soul
With so much emptiness
And drops of bitter stone.
