How can you ask me
How I have been
I think you should know well
The shape that Im in
You say that you wondered
If I was o.k
Well thats A damn fool thing to say

The water is risin
The water is wide
And your always standin
On the other side
And then comes the moment
I wake before dawn
With hours to lie here alone

And you seem so suprised
That Im feelin this way
How am I so lonely today
If you ever loved me the way I loved you
You would be lonely too

So heres to the lovers
For old times sake
Who dont hold each other
To the promise they break
And smile through the window
And wave on the street
Cause thats all you want now from me

Should I say something
To put you at ease
Or should I get down on my knees
If you ever loved me the way I loved you
You would be lonely too

If you ever loved me the way I loved you
You would be lonely t
