Lyrics
Tell Me What You See In Me
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.
My ship sails in
On a cloud of broken promises
It's just not true
Not a single word she says
Time will tell
Whether I can change my ways
It might take years
It might even take always.
Tell me what you see in me
And I'll tell you what I see in you.
Your picture melts
Before my tired eyes
And all it leaves
Is just a trace of paradise
You'll change again
That's what I've been told
But don't take long
Or I might get too old.
Take it easy
But take it slow
For who knows which way next
That wind will blow
Time goes by
Just as quickly as I want it to
And I'll make out
Like I never knew.
