How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
I went up to your window
Lightly banging on the cymbals
A writ into the night
Came storming to your house
My horse had worked the fields too long
My bear had lost its innate calm
It's true enough for not at peace
But peace is never where the sea sees
Our love is not the light it was
When I walk inside the dark I'm calm
Where we look for where it went
It's only echoes in the melody
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
We waste time on blame I wreak revenge
We used energy and foojections
We live in proof, we gotta let go
And stop looking through the lay-low
We carry on as if the time missed through
You carry on as if I don't love you
And so we find the way to lie
To cover hard I have a doubt
The room is full of eyes and empty
Like your letters never sent me
Words like a lasso
You're an instrumental tune
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
