Out, where River meets Tide
That's the kind of hazy blue
That we were turning to
Out on the sands of time
We were just fools with time
It’s green looking back
Through old photographs
But how was your heart and mind
Did all that love in your life pass on by?
Don’t go on feeling
misunderstood
A wallflower with a head not sorted out
Misunderstood
All the while till your love though to come around
Misunderstood
While all that love in your life is passing by
I hope it takes the rest of time
Here, in the dark, dark night
That the kind of starry eyed
I’d like to recognize
Those colours of saccharine
When were living it
Walking with a tenderness
A kind of wonderment
A witness to impermanence
While all that love in your life is passing by
Don’t go on feeling misunderstood
A wallflower with a head not sorted out
Misunderstood
All the while till your love though to come around
Misunderstood
While all that love in your life is passing by
I hope it takes the rest of time
