Title: I know you think
Post by: rightly on April 15, 2020, 06:47:07 AM
I wrote this over 20 years ago.
I'm reviving it now.


I know that you think


I know you think that crazy
You have no idea how much that hurts me
And in your chambers it must get lonely
Your house is very big it gets bigger when you are the only

I thought I hated you
I really wanted to
I wanted you to see me strong
Everything u'thought well, just had to be wrong

And your lights have been off for so long
Maybe you've forgotten how to turn them on
I know that you think I'm crazy

It was funny when I turned things inside out
I was happy when your laughter took the last of my doubts
Oh big love I trust big words you must speak
Or turn a deaf ear to this prisoner when you hear him weep

And your lights have been off for so long
Maybe you've forgotten how to turn them on
I know that you think that I'm crazy

I've been looking at my older stuff too.  Re-writing lyrics and music.  This one is incredibly timely for being twenty years old.  Maybe you're a prophet?
