lyrics

The one I want to please
will never speak to me.
Nobody tells me what to do.

It seems like everybody needs
two ways to be known.
I am singing for myself, if I am true.

But I have a simple mind
when you are being kind,
I listen and I look you in the eye.

I think I'm going blind.
I need to make you feel my love.
I didn't mean to say goodbye.

I don't know where I'm going when I stop to think.
The water I divine I will stop to drink.
The door is made of stone, but I still feel
like knocking.

And in my own defence,
it is no coincidence
that only I can tell you how I feel.

Tell me at your own expense
why you think you need to know
how to take a side or make a deal.

If you are all alone
or if you're better known,
if you open every door,

you can call me on the phone.
I will say hello to you.
Tell me if I need to tell you more.

Maybe I will tell you it is never to late.
Maybe I will tell you it is better to wait.
I only want to know you,
I don't feel like talking.

Come on, say what I would say.
The moon is shining bright, today.
Tell me that I too can be the one.

The sun is rising far away.
It hurts to look at it.
Morning star when all is said and done.

How blessed are the ears
that you will never hear.
I want to hear somebody singing.

But there's no need to fear.
I believe I'm not alone.
I don't need to know everything.


The one I want to please
will never speak to me.
