Keep The Change

Now Id like to lay here in the night
Now Id like to linger in the light
Wishing not to move
I have nothing left to prove
But did I hear you asking was it wrong or right
Chorus
If you feel a little strange
Please have the memory and keep the change
Now Id like to hover in a hole
Where silence is the singer of the soul
I have no games to play
I have no lines to say
But someones taking surveys on a passion pole
Pretending every worry has all gone
Now Id like to drift into the dawn
As simple as it seems (? )
Changing thoughts around to dreams (? )
But did I hear the stifling of a sleepless yawn
Now Id like to dangle in a dream
A cavalier whos courting to the queen
Hopelessly insane
Running ragged through the rain
But someones directing lovers on a silver screen
Now Id live to hide behind a hand
Its too late for leaving footprints on the sand
Willing/chilling (? ) is the wine
Ive surrendered to the time
But someone is insisting that
they understand
Now youve heard the story of the skin
All the ashtrays have been powdered to the brim
Id only like to fall
Watching whispers on the wall
But someones making up the bed and defining sin
