I've kept my head against the wall
I've been this way for so long now
You weren't exactly falling over yourself
When last I saw you
Well I always thought
We'd get along like a house on fire
Until you told me that
I'd have to go
How can someone like you, work that slow?
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and
I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and
I will make you see
I don't feel anything no more
This state of grace is consuming me
I'm not grown up and
I am not a boy
I feel no pain and
I feel no joy
Well, I always thought
We'd get along like a house on fire
In those days when the sun was warm
I ran in the street where I was born
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and
I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and
I will make you see
The streets are so empty at this time of night
I'd rather walk on my own than fight
In a world where I'd forgotten you
I found myself forgotten, too
That's the danger of believing books
And all the lies of those thieves and crooks
We sing intellectual songs of love
From a stolen pen to a velvet glove

It was January, 1963
When Johnny came home with a gift for me
He said I bought it for you because I love you
And I bought it for you 'cause it's your ...
What can you buy
That lifts a heavy heart up to the sky
What makes your day
What miracle of life
Has come to stay
A taste of love
So sweet so real you...
At the end of the day
There's no food on our plate
So we beg and we steal
For we know love is real
And if we don't take a chance
These are all the cha...

And we're changing our ways, taking different roads

That lifts a heavy heart up to the sky
What makes your day
What miracle of life
Has come to stay
A taste of love
So sweet so real you...
