Saturday - Triptides

When she’s far away you can see her face through the dawn on a Saturday

Words you spoke just the night before, seemed so crude but you say no more

All the thoughts spinning round your head keep you up when you’re in your bed

Late at night and you’re trying to sleep

And know you won’t so you just repeat, and you just say

I can not rescind

Crystals in your eyes

Never knew it, there to show it

All the ways you try

Is it far or near

What’s there left to fear

Finding ways to miss the days when it was all so clear

When your thoughts run outside and through your head

Looking round at the place you stand

Amidst the dust and the silent cars

Wondering why is your alibi

She’s far away in another place

Times have changed you can see her face

Late at night when you’re all alone

Crying words into the telephone, but you just say

I can not rescind

Crystals in your eyes

Never knew it, there to show it

All the ways you try

What’s there left to fear

Finding ways to miss the days when it was all so clear
