Trouble

(album: All In Time - 1998)

Have they put out all the fires yet
Now the celebration's done
I hope you'll come to see me
Before the summer's gone
My mind still lives in your time
My spirit's up and down
I tried to find some old friends
But nobody's around

Can't understand it
I got my signals crossed
I thought I could do it
But already I've had enough

The buildings they're so graceful here
They barely touch the sky
Sometimes it's so quiet
You can hear your neighbours cry
I miss my messy circus street
With music through the night
I miss the times we'd stumble home
Together in the morning light

Oh my I wish that I
Had thought about this more
Maybe then I'd be waking up
Behind familiar doors

I must be blind
I must be out of my mind
To think I'd come back
And everything would change
I must be so naive
That I forgot about the pain
Here I am in trouble once again

And as one day becomes the next
Clearly it's the time
To see the things I never change
And what I leave behind

Oh my I wish that I
Had thought about this more
Maybe then I'd be waking up
Behind familiar doors

I must be blind
I must be out of my mind
To think I'd come back
And everything would change
I must be so naive
That I forgot about the pain
Here I am in trouble once
Here I am in trouble once
Here I am in trouble once again
