Lately

Lately, I have had the strangest feeling
With no vivid reason here to find
Yet the thought of losing yous been hanging
Round my mind
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume
With you say no special place to go
But when I ask will you be coming back soon
You don't know, never know
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'cause they always start to cry
'cause this time could mean goodbye
Lately I've been staring in the mirror
Very slowly picking me apart
Trying to tell myself I have no reason
With your heart
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume
With you say no special place to go
But when I ask you of the thoughts your keeping
You just say nothings changed
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'cause they always start to cry
'cause this time could mean goodbye, goodbye
Oh, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'cause they always start to cry
'cause this time could mean goodbye
