"They Don't Seem To Know You" lyrics

"They Don't Seem To Know You"

They don't seem to know you
For they say they do
Though they ask those questions
You can't believe they're true

Just in case you're doubted
Your answers won't be heard
And you can not retrieve them
Even though they're only words

Their eyes are full of stardust
Your hearts a million of tears
If only you could tell them
About the love you needed

But even as you stand there
In real life again
And even if you wanted
No words could sound the same

So gather up your sadness
And lock it all away
There is a brighter sound
There is another day

The hours could be going so slowly
And nothings as it seems
And every thing you wanted
Is alas, among your dreams
