Only Words

lyrics

i was waiting in the airport til the batteries had gone.
i couldn't help but count the minutes,
i think the coffee brought it on.

you flashed across my lashes
and it made my heart stop.
It always seems to happen when there's nothing going on.

How would i know if it's you i miss the most?
Or if it's just the me you helped to mould..
the one that ceased to exist the day you didn't get the joke.
I'll walk it off, it's only words not sticks and stones
but they're referencing a debt i'll always owe,
to those girls and those times.
But, they've been and gone.

So i guess what i'm saying is i've no desire to bring you home
because, no matter where i've laid this hat i've seldom felt alone.
but somedays . when i feel less than what i was
i think of who you made me briefly and thats when my hat comes off. . .
