Circles - Pentimento

I’m just a voice on the phone

You’re just a face in a frame

So it’s no surprise to see the shape you take

You’re so fragile.

You’re so full of blame

But I don’t blame you

All those promises that you had made to keep

I guess you’ll keep eventually, to anyone but me

Your words and your ways are two completely different things

There’s so much truth in all our humor, and so much humor in our truth

So I’m laughing at all the things that I thought I knew

I thought I knew you

All those promises that you had made to keep

I guess you’ll keep eventually to anyone but me

Your words and your ways are two completely different things

But could you imagine what would happen if we were to stay still

And tell our breath just to exhale our innocence?

The tide goes in, the tide goes out

We’re growing up to grow apart

All those promises that you had made to keep

I guess you’ll keep eventually to anyone but me

Your words and your ways are two completely different things

The tide goes in. The tide goes out

(Like how I was there when you needed me but you just couldn’t do the same)

We’re growing up to grow apart
