"Watching You" lyrics
"Watching You"
That's a good question
Why am I standing out here alone?
I guess I don't know enough
To come in from the rain
I was watching your window
From here below
I think I just might stay
Here all day
'Cause I gotta do something
'Cause If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh... keep watching you
Oh... I keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh... I keep watching you
You could throw me down a cigarette
I smoked my last one quite a while ago
No, I gave it to the man
That swore he had no need
You know sometimes if I listen real close
I can hear the dark side of the moon
And there's always yesterday's Times
If I care to read
And I gotta do something
'Cause If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh... keep watching you
Oh... I keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh... I keep watching you
Sure I'm alright
No, I'm not very cold
You see, every now and then
I can feel the subway heat
So go on inside
I'll leave you alone
Anyway, Bogart's on in the window
Down the street
And I gotta do something
'Cause If I can't love you
I don't want to love you
If I can't hold you
I don't want to be thinking of you
And if you don't want me
I don't want to want you
And if you won't see me
I don't know what to do
But oh... keep watching you
Oh... I keep watching you
Until I see right through
Oh... I keep watching you
I keep watching you
You
You

Always wanna leave the party early, maybe I like to dance
Slowly, if you really wanna love me
Take it easy when you hold me, I might let go

Sophie B. Hawkins - "We Are One Body" I used to view the world as
Some things good and most things bad
But if you'd be my lover
I'd be more than what I am

I could shut my engines down
But deeper currents were...

for telling lies like that
So well that I believed it.
And I never felt cheated.
You were the chosen one,

Who knows what fear runs deep and wild
Inside
But the river's in flood tonight
I lay down and the light streamed across my face
I felt the beauty of some...
