She said you were with me
But oh, how can that be?
I was there
Just here
She said you were wearing clothes
In and out of doors
And you were here
With me
My take is this
You were not with me
You never were lost
You were just ashes to the sea
She said you were waiting in
A café filled with waiting friends
In and out and all at once
Everywhere
Now I wanna know
Do you approve of how I be?
Will you be back
And can't you just talk straight to me?
She's got ringlets in her hair
She's smoke-stacking rings in the air
Overhead
Overhead
She keeps saying things to me
Things I want so much to be
Please tell me more
Please make me see
She says I must let you go
Through the flame of candlelight
I blow it out
We're all in the dark
My take is this
You were not with me
You just don't exist
Much as I want
As much as I want you with me
