Confusing words. . just words
Confusing words. . just words
I swear to you sister you're losing your ability to laugh
Out from underneath your dark brown eyes
l see a woman on a windowsill
Everywhere I go. . . someone follows after me
l swear to you sister you 're losing your ability to smile
Something's nagging at my heart
Someone else's ball and chain
Something's nagging at my heart
Then it goes away again
This is the story of my direction
This is the story of the one I love
It isn't only for my protection
An iron fist in a velvet glove
l used to be near you but now there's something tearing
us apart
Though you will surely be offended it's not intended
Time and time again we end up getting so confused
I swear to you sister you're losing your ability to smile
