I've been waiting So I'm waiting by a phone for the blessed ring Like a holy grail for the fisher king Time is ticking down like a metronome Rhythm for my brain, and it's ceaseless scales I never seem to play them to the beat I hear Though my heartbeat is a beat that beats so near
So we had a talk last night about the heavy blow That you dealt in fright, you're back against the wall It was a puzzle piece, important to the whole That I may not find to place within that hole I never seem to put them in the gaps I see Like a puzzle where the pieces lost you need
Chorus So I'm changing who I am 'cause what I am's not good And I know you love me now But I don't see why you should And I don't see why you should No, I don't see why you should
So I drift into the air like a moth to light Down the boulevard to the coffee shop In the land of song, in the land of waits My pen is bearing down on this lonely town I never seem to write them down as good as him Like I somewhere lost the keys that let me in
Chorus So I'm changing who I am 'cause what I am's not good And I know you love me now (love me now) But I don't see why you should So I'm changing who I am 'cause what I am's not good And I know you love me now (love me now) But I don't see why you should And I don't see why you should No, I don't see why you should
