Warehouse

You look up With surprise on your face The lamplight Throws familiar shapes Right and wrong A fake partition wall A slim hope At the root of it all How could I forget your name and your reputation? How could I gauge how you felt with no indication? I don’t care what we’ve been through I can’t sleep without music I feel strangled when I’m with you The days are stacking up slowly Life is a warehouse as much as anything else Life is a warehouse as much as anything else So little left unsaid Just the important things You were the engineer Of thoughts that I can’t control It’s a conversation that’s just been waiting You thought that I was a hardback kind of guy But paperback books are all that I ever buy I don’t care what we’ve been through I can’t sleep without music I feel strangled when I’m with you The days are stacking up slowly Life is a warehouse as much as anything else Life is a warehouse as much as anything else I don’t care what we’ve been through
