In Lieu Of You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I learned how to twiddle my thumbs now like a champion
And I picked up a new language by talking to the wind
I can walk the floor like that Texas troubadour
And I'm too busy watching time pass by, for pastimes with my friends
In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you
Well, I hardly even understand what time is
So I don't know if time's been kind or if it's on my side
Cause I keep turning back the clock to see if I can find us
But I wind up reminding myself I'm too occupied
In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you
In lieu of you I'm lonesome
But I hope some day you'll be
Missing out on someone who keeps himself busy
Wondering what you do in lieu of me
In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you
