Saturday

When she’s far away you can see her face through the dawn on a Saturday
Words you spoke just the night before, seemed so crude but you say no more
All the thoughts spinning round your head keep you up when you’re in your bed
Late at night and you’re trying to sleep
And know you won’t so you just repeat, and you just say
I can not rescind
Crystals in your eyes
Never knew it, there to show it
All the ways you try
Is it far or near
What’s there left to fear
Finding ways to miss the days when it was all so clear
When your thoughts run outside and through your head
Looking round at the place you stand
Amidst the dust and the silent cars
Wondering why is your alibi
She’s far away in another place
Times have changed you can see her face
Late at night when you’re all alone
Crying words into the telephone, but you just say
I can not rescind
Crystals in your eyes
Never knew it, there to show it
All the ways you try
What’s there left to fear
Finding ways to miss the days when it was all so clear
