Small Fred Jaguar The Distance We pass through these rooms without speaking Where the light throws a pattern of lace You say you don't know if you are leaving But there's no shadow of doubt upon your face And you tell me there is no other And I know you well enough to know it's true And well enough to know you need a lover Who can give what I never gave to you. You can say that you were lonely When I lay right by your side You can say you saw the distance When I looked you in the eye And you can say I never reached you No matter how many times I tried But don't say I didn't love you Cause that's a god damn lie I emptied the drawer filled with letters And I bowed my head and cried No one ever loved me better There was love in every line But there were times I didn't hold you When all you needed was a touch And there were times when I said nothing When one word would have been enough And it seems sometimes like I lost my hand to a machine In an accident a long time ago It grabbed at my fingers and tore them off clean Still I wait for these fingers to grow And if I had fingers I'd touch your cheek With a gesture so gentle and fine I would braid your hair with baby's breath I would take your hand in mine You can say that you were lonely When I lay right by your side You can say you saw the distance When I looked you in the eye And you can say I never reached you No matter how many times I tried But don't say I didn't love you Cause that's a god damn lie I hear your voice in the morning Singing softly to yourself I know you imaging the loving That awaits you with somebody else And maybe I will find another Who will take me in spite of these scars And each of us yet may discover How innocent we are You can say that you were lonely When I lay right by your side You can say you saw the distance When I looked you in the eye And you can say I never reached you No matter how many times I tried But don't say I didn't love you Cause that's a god damn lie I know you won't say I didn't love you Cause you know it would be a lie |
