You were painting the past as you laid beside me in bed.
Without knowing you referenced the song stuck in my head.
And suddenly now was the past, the past was now; sometimes I live inside that song.
But as I'm getting older I can't help but fear I've got it wrong.
Now I've had so long to listen, but did I listen? Well I don't know, and that's the issue.
Especially when we've seen the same scene but we each describe a different view.
And how could I expect you to give it meaning, when there's no meaning, but that's what I've asked of you?
How could you suggest that I'm not giving my best, when you know I hate it too?
Why do I need you to hold me when we're already there?
But still I need you to hold me.
