Dear, it'd be nice to go home today
But I'm not sure that home is still mine
And I think I'm still carrying something
That someone else had left behind
Maybe it's part of my nature
To hold onto things no one else wants
But there's nothing more precious than memories
That you need only once you forgot
A man on the corner once said to me
That the past slowly turns your skin blue
And most people just never get close enough
So you only look different to you
Tell me, is it hard to know me?
To see all the lines on my face?
"I love you, I miss you, I'm sorry"
Are those just things that most people say?
But love is an act of attention
The big things, and little things, too
And, dear, I think I just got close enough
To notice your skin is blue, too
Dear, it'd be nice to move on today
But I'm not sure that's something we do
If everything has to go somewhere
Will you let me go somewhere with you?
The man on the corner still says to me
That the past slowly turns your soul blue
And most people just never get deep enough
So you only feel different to you
And tell me, is it hard to see me?
To feel all the lines on my face?
"I love you, I miss you, I'm sorry"
Are those just things that most people say?
But love is an act of attention
The big things, and little things, too
And, dear, I think I just got deep enough
To notice your soul is blue, too
I love you, I miss you, I'm sorry, I see you
I love you, I miss you, I'm sorry, I feel you
