Lyrics by Melodie Somers
Music by Melodie Somers & Donald Adamczyk
I look at you, you look away;
I touch your arm, you go.
I say your name; you don’t hear me;
There’s nothin’ left but "no."
I go to my room, but you don’t
follow;
I go to yours, you sleep.
I’m at the door, you brush right by me;
Why do I lie? Lie and weep?
[Chorus]
This dry spell’s a desert that’s lost its bloom.
Who are you? I thought I knew.
Who are "we?" What’s left to do?
But if we stay...
More sad songs to play.
A ghost that walks, I ghost
talk, too;
I reach for you, my hand goes through.
You stare ahead but never see me .
The chiding wind whispers "fool."
I lie to myself, in time
you’ll want me.
My eyes won’t see, what’s true.
Why do I pretend, there’s something left here --
In this long dry spell, for two?
[Chorus]
And if I stay... More sad songs to play
