The Late Show

Everyone I've ever known has wished me well

Anyway, that's how it seems, it's hard to tell

Maybe people only ask you how you're doing

'Cause that's easier than letting on how little they could care

But when you know that you've got a real friend somewhere

Suddenly all the others are so much easier to bearNow to see things clear it's hard enough, I know

While you're waiting for reality to show

Without dreamin' of the perfect love

And holding it so far above

That if you stumbled onto someone real, you'd never know

(You'd never know)You could be with somebody who is lonely too

(Sometimes it doesn't show)

He might be trying to get across to you

(Words can be so slow)

When your own emptiness is all that's gettin' through

There comes a point when you're not sure why you're still talking

I passed that point long ago

(Long ago)I'm so tired of all this circling

And all these glimpses of the end

(You know it's useless to pretend)

That's all the voices say, you'll go right on circling

Until you've found some kind of friendWell, I saw you through the laughter and the noise

You were talking with the soldiers and the boys

While they scuffled for your weary smiles

I thought of all the empty miles

And the years that I've spent looking for your eyes

(Looking for your eyes)Now I'm sitting here wondering what to say

(That you might recognize)

Afraid that all these words might scare you away

(To break through the disguise)

No one ever talks about their feelings anyway

Without dressing them in dreams and laughter

I guess it's just too painful otherwiseLook, it's like you're standing in the window

Of a house nobody lives in

And I'm sitting in a car across the way

(Let's just say)

It's an early model Chevrolet

(Let's just say)

It's a warm and windy dayYou go and pack your sorrow

The trash man comes tomorrow

Leave it at the kerb and we'll just roll away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
