A Man Still Lives Here
he left his black leather bootsthey sit in the back of my closet like a sign
and the wind blows late at night and I know
cause I stay up late with my mind
I take comfort in my favorite room with you
but I feel a witch has put a hex on me
the moon runs away when I go out
so I'm left alone
and it's easy
because they know a man still lives here
he resides in my heart and
I hold him dear
waiting forever
for my head to clear
cause a man still lives here
sometimes they look at me and smile
like they think I'm easy
then they see my eyes and they turn away
looking queasy
cause they recognize your prescence
in every little move that I make
and I'm often left alone in an empty room
but it's for my own sake
because they know a man still lives here
he resides in my heart and
I hold him dear
waiting forever
for my head to clear
cause a man still lives here
and the trees scrape cheeks as I run
I am going so fast I outdistance the sun
the solar system accepts my grace as a token from above
and I have been waiting for you
my love
when the clock strikes signaling the day's end
I scream so loud no one can hear me
I avert my eyes so well that no one ever
can come near me
I can feel my bones grow cold, I think maybe I'm going crazy
but I don't fear much since you're here
and things just don't faze me
no, no
oh, and they know a man still lives here
he resides in my heart and I
hold him near
waiting forever
for my head to clear
and a man still lives here
