(parèntesi obligat)

Stuff and nonsense

Disobey my own decisions.
I deserve all your suspicion.
First it's yes and then it's no,
I dilly dally down to a duo.

But I got no secrets that I babble in my sleep.
I won't make promises to you that I can't keep.

And you know that I love you,
Here and now, not forever.
I can give you the present,
I don't know 'bout the future,
that's all stuff and nonsense.

I once lived for the future,
Every day was one day closer.
Greener on the other side,
This I believed before I met you.

I soon learned your love burned brighter than the stars in my eyes.
Now I know how and when
I know where and why.

And you know that I love you,
Here and now, not forever.
I can give you the present,
I don't know 'bout the future,
That's all stuff and nonsense.

(parèntesi obligat)

Wherever you are

Wherever you are
it's 3 a.m. and I'm awake.
Imagine the light
upon your blue transparent face.
Through coloured glass
it filters down to warmest red
Faded... I'm the one who reads your mind
see my life in your design
true companion at your side.
You're gracious and good
when all around is turning bad.
Restless and brave
when laid upon suburban grass.
Your timing is right
remove the sad persistent thought,
hold the course
I'm the one who reads your mind,
see my life in your design,
true companion at your side.
I'll give you something
for when I'm not around
to make you smile
And if only I could make it through
and if you think it then it must be true
climb into my bed
wherever you are
wherever you are
your timing is good
remove the sad persistent thought
hold the course
I'm the one who reads your mind
Sees my life in your design
True companion at your side
I'll leave you something for when I'm not around
To make you smile
Outside that wasteland
And if only I could make it through
If you think it then it must be true
Wherever you are
