I count the cracks in the pavement
Where the weeds and wishes grow
Every car is a reminder
That there's someplace else to go
I steal a moment beside you
Can you hear me whispering
I don't know what divides you
And I wonder if it's me

I'm a man who needs control
A little space, just to soothe my soul
And sometimes I'm too far away
I'm well enough to believe your lies
And sick enough to believe you're mine
If it's painful just because
Don't be surprised if you're in love
