The closest you've ever come to me. Was to help me up the stairs. You stood in the middle of the stairway. You nearly dragged me up the stairs. "You've been asleep.". "Well I've been asleep for how long?" she says. "Why do you question me?". He says "You never cared about time before my friend.". Seems like a thousand days since you've been gone.... Seems like a thousand days since you've been gone.... You're not my friend you're not my love. And this is something that we really don't discuss. If there is no time and there is no place.. And if there was well you'd never leave a trace. And as all arch angels do to you. And as all arch enemies will finally do to you too. Well I found you. Quiet now songbird just for one night. Well I know that you love to sing. And oh baby well I know that you love to write. You live by the light of the moon. and I live by light of desire. Ooh such words to her over the phone. "Just how many people are there with you now". Well I can see the trouble. The sun is here today and I requested a storm. But I like some kind of TIME/LIFE edition. Tradition competition.... Being the only thing that I really have to remember. The great singers and the great players. And if the sun warms up the rain. And the rain puts out the sun. Why does the greatest love become the greatest pain?. So where are you?. Sometimes I hear you crying. and I wake up and still I wake up crying. Well he is on my mind..he's everywhere. And if he followed me home. will the sound of both of our voices simply disappear?. Well I miss you now.... He laughs. He has an attitude so I have an attitude too. He knocks on the door next to the courtyard. Well he frightens me so I let him in. But I'm already well I'm already screaming. How can the greatest love come from the greatest pain?
