How can you ask me
How have I been
I think you should know well
The shape that I'm in
You tell me you wondered
If I was ok
That's a damn fool thing to say
The water is rising
The water is wide
And your always standing
On the other side
Then comes the moment
I wake in the dawn
With hours to lie here alone
You seem so surprised
That I'm feeling this way
How am I so lonely today
If you ever loved me
The way I loved you
You would be lonely too
SOLO
So here's to the lovers
For old times sake
Who don't hold each other
To the promise they break
And smile through the window
And wave on the street
Cause that's all you want now from me
Should I say something
To put you at ease
Or should I get down on my knees
But if you ever loved me
The way I love you
You would be lonely too
But if you ever loved me
The way I love you
You would be lonely too
