Patiently, I've waited patiently
Hoping that you'd believe
That the lights in our eyes
Are not fading outThey're not yet fading out
Somehow we're safe and sound
Like the glow of the shore
We will hurryWhat could I ever do?
What could I say?
To cover up my concerns?
To keep them at bay?Oh, then she said
You spend too much time in your head
What could I ever do?
What could I say so carefully?Carefully, I followed carefully
Too scared of us and me
So I'll wait on the sand
With her coppertoneYeah, she put on coppertone
And went out there all alone
Never one to be scared or to worryWhat could I ever do?
What could I say?
To cover up my concerns?
To keep them at bay?Oh, then she said
You spend too much time in your head
What could I ever do?
What could I say so carefully?What could I ever do?
Oh, what could I say?
To cover up my concerns?
To keep them at bay?Oh, then she said
You spend too much time in your head
What could I ever do?
Oh, what could I say so carefully?
