You Can't Give Me

I’m really not alone
I’m not the kind of girl that does forlorn
No place I wanna be
No one I wanna see
Everything good will always change its way
Oh I’m better on my own
If I dig up buried thoughts
And I make that song play again
If you see that I’m outside
That won’t make me come in
Oh I could make you feel so very loved
I can make you feel so far away
You can’t give me what you’re feeling
You can’t give me what you’re feeling
We can hide away in dreams
But it’ll end the same with me
Oh I know
This town keeps moving
But my mind’s like a clear night
Just think about you, the choices in my hand
There’s a shadow passing over our clock
There’s so much of you that I’ve already lost
You can’t give me what you’re feeling
You can’t give me what you’re feeling
We can hideaway in dreams
But it’ll end the same, you see
Oh I know
We go forward, pay the past
Do you think people fade things fast
Oh let it go
You can’t give me what you’re feeling
We can hideaway in dreams
But it’ll end the same, you see
Oh I know
It was our hands that cut the stem
Have we learnt anything since then
I don’t know
This here’s not mine
A stranger came by, I held, I tried
No more, too near
You can talk to the crowds, I can’t wait here
These hands now cold
No gentle unfolding, unfolding
It’s too old
Oh this blink that cursed the eye
I’ve taken mine
And I know it feels strange, but now I’m letting go
