Self-assured with a cold heart I was sure the words had failed us So roundabout, I take the curtains down Sweep beneath chairs, the un-answered prayers
Now i'm haunted by a longing so early in the morning It greets me without warning
Coincidence I see you today, we small talk but time gets in the way So I clip the clock's wings, we talk about smart things Find myself smiling for the first time in days
Now I'm haunted by a longing, this afternoon on main street
You're smiling and oh, how apropos I once had an ending but now I have the go I laugh when you say "flowers say what they mean" Roundabout, you say the funniest things
Now I'm haunted by a longing so late in the evening It greets me with a warning
