Caedmon's Call - Another Ten Miles Lyrics
I don't see what You see in me,I'm just flesh and bone,Many hours at the carouselPostcards from far from homeSometimes I feel as useless as my empty words, old presidents' dogs, clean paws, no dirt-What do these words mean?Sometimes I just don't know.Sometimes I just can't see where it is I go-I waste my whole day thinking over things I've saidAnd avoiding myself like the plague in my headI know that You see meAnd I know You're about me,That's why You let me roam another 10 miles-Where does all this lead, and why must I follow it?Nothing is black and white,(Even me, I must admit).I jot down the facts and work on consistency,But open up the closed door;It's George, and the cat, and me.My shifting eyes like sands cannot focus on the void,Concentration still,"Get thee behind me, Freud."I'm grasping at straws and the bale is almost gone;The fire's grown much too dim,Nights grow much too long-I am holding things Yours,Not mine while I should cling to YouLike a cow beneath the light of a highway sign.
