A Girl Named You

You must have lost a long time standing still

You did not try to persist but you will

Growing obsession while you're at the door

One step more and it's yours

Day after day you've been diddling the truth

You think you're living but live's living you

What do you feel when you're daughter is near

Are you held up by her fear

What did you lose in your life against your will

I see no value in what your head fills

What would you lose when that value would die

No one who cares

You're outside

Night after night you've been dreaming the truth

Sometimes it's right when you hide in your youth

Sometimes you feel that you're acting so stark

That why you kiss in the dark.

What would you do when the lights were on you

Would it be painful to tell me your truth

You never feel that you're standing outside

No one who cares

You're alright

You know your name and i know mine

You play your games and i play mine

Knowing everybody likes it

But not like we do

And we do

When we do

I know your name and you know mine

I play your games and you'll play mine

Knowing everybody likes you

But not like I you

And I do

And I do

You know my name and i know yours

You play my games and i play yours, of course

But if everybody cancels the things that we own

We're alone

We're alone
