lyrics

Somebody, Anybody

you dont wanna talk to me yet you just sit and stare.
not a single loving phrase from your lips do I hear.
you’re playing it cool, you made the rules
sipping your slow surprise it seems without a care.

had your own way too long without a thought for me.
I endured your petty whims with nascent humility.
I’ve been your fool and followed your rules.
now the enchantments gone - surely you can see

that I can’t go on in this way

yes I need to find
somebody to occupy my mind
with more than house plants and chimes
someone to make me whole.
somebody, anybody
who’ll give their favours to me
not place a lock and a key
around my heart like a stone.

so now adieu my dear, I’m sure you’ll get along
into that crowded room soon be lost in the throng.
find another fool who’ll keep to your rules.
this fool’s future lies before him - hope never seemed so strong.

oh how could I have wanted to stay

now I need to find
somebody to occupy my time
with more than melody and rhyme
oh I need to feel whole.
somebody, anybody
who’ll give their favours for free
not place a lock and a key
around my heart like a stone.
