The Paper Kites

We were trying, but we re trying no more
It s cold on the floor, cold on the floor
This house has never been the same as before
It s never felt warm, never felt warm
There s something moving through the windows and walls
I ve seen it before, seen it before
You left me living with a lingering soul
How little you know, how little you know

We were standing at the foot of a path
I had to go back, had to go back
I chose to travel as a lonely man
So much that I lacked, so much that I lacked
I m always wishing I was walking that road
It s something I hold, something I hold
I take it with me all the places I go
How little you know, how little you know

I only eat to fill me up
I only sleep to rest
I need a love just like you gave
I haven t found it yet, found it yet

See where I am is where I m wanting to be
I know what I need, know what I need
And there are many different places to see
I know how to dream, know how to dream
Still there s a wound and I m moving slow
Though it don t show, though it don t show
I ve got a hole where nothing grows
How little you know little you know
I only eat to fill me up
I only sleep to rest
I need a love just like you gave
I haven t found it yet, found it yet

Maybe we d marry and we d work it out fine
In some other time, some other time
And we are happy when I m walking that line
It s all in my mind, all in my mind
I paint the ceiling so that nobody knows
I cover it slow, cover it slow
It s like you ve never even met me before
How little I show, little I show
How little I show, little I show
