remember tumble weeds on an empty road
|
that coffee pot on a burnin' stove
|
the Christmas tree in a place a called home
|
that's what I miss the most
|
|
this drifting leaves fall to the ground
|
I scoop them up and I throw them down
|
I close my eyes and I start to count
|
the lonely people leaving town
|
|
and I feel like a monkey in winter
|
and you are a lizard in the sun
|
yes I feel like a monkey in winter
|
|
say hello to something new
|
is what a friend told me to do
|
'cos beggars can't be choosers and I can't afford to loose
|
we never touched we never kissed
|
we never loved though we thought we did
|
so I walked away and I called it quits
|
what the eyes don't see, you know the heart won't miss
|
|
but I feel like a monkey in winter
|
and you are a lizard in the sun
|
yes I feel like a monkey in winter
|
and winter's just began
|
|
remember summer long ago
|
the sun beats down, the air was clean
|
it came and went away
|
things come and go
|
but do you, do you remember me?
|
|
remember tumble weeds on an empty road
|
coffee pot on a burnin' stove
|
the Christmas tree in a place a called home
|
that's what I miss the most
|
|
we never touched we never kissed
|
we never loved though we thought we did
|
so I walked away and I called it quits
|
what the eyes don't see, you know the heart don't miss
|
|
but I feel like a monkey in winter
|
and you are a lizard in the sun
|
yes I feel like a monkey in winter
|
and it looks like winter's gone
