Loner

Kansas

I remember when I saw your face
I said out loud, "She's out of place"
She's summer's child and still she feels no freedom
Your hair was long and so was mine
When we were young I felt a kind of magic
Did you feel that for me?

I thought that you would understand
You thought that I was in your hand
Now's the time when I can't stay
Not even you can change the way
I'm a loner

I remember when I saw your eyes
I said out loud, "I realize
That beauty often hides a heart that's hardened"
You tell me now you use them all
They love it best before they fall
Collected like a flower in your garden

I thought that you would understand
You thought that I was in your hand
Now's the time when I can't stay
Not even you can change the way
I'm a loner

I'm a loner

I thought that you would understand
You thought that I was in your hand
Now's the time when I can't stay
Not even you can change the way
I'm a loner, loner, loner
