Such a Shame
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.
The heat was on
But you were cold
Went against what you were sold
Standing by a love so old
Afraid if anything was told
I said “Your home is in your heart”
You slowly moved our hands apart
I kissed the standard and walked out
Then I watched you drive away
Take with you that smile away
Sit and wonder who’s to blame
Wasted all this time
Such a shame
A memory of ocean light
All mixed up on bitter wine
My shadow laughs at lack of spine
I can’t believe my eyes
So then I drop out
I’m spinning around
With colored pills that pull the feel away
I tippy-toe as I walk alone on a dream
But I’m awoken by what games were played
Then I watched you drive away
Take with you that smile away
Sit and wonder who’s to blame
Wasted all this time
Such a shame
I saw you
Did you see me?
I’m still lost on my way
18 flowers and I’m back again
Then I watched you drive away
Take with you that smile away
Sit and wonder who’s to blame
Wasted all this time
Such a shame
