I stare at statues, and famous bronzes
the strangest thing is, I see you staring
back at me
I'll never dream - you any better
not a thing
dreams dreams dreams, dreams dreams dreams.
my idle reverie
I stare at paintings, and faded drawings
where every face, is yours asking
"where am I?"
I got no plan, I got no plan, I got no plan, I got no plan
how long can a memory, how long can a memory stay?
I got no plan, I got no plan, I got no plan, I got no plan
the memory, waits,
it steals, it steals, it steals
every day
I search through archives, rebuilding pictures
to bring you back
I looked for reasons but all I found was
what I lack
a stray cigarette has taken you from me
all the fire that you had
took flight to the sky.
pin pricks now
shine down from the night
it's all I - can see by
and it's true true true, true true true
I held on long long long
after
you were gone.
