Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For twenty-seven years I've been tryin'
To believe and confide in
Different people I found
Some of them got closer than others
Some wouldn't even bother
And then you came around
[Verse 2]
I didn't really know what to call you
You didn't know me at all
But I was happy to explain
I never really knew how to move you
So I tried to intrude through
The little holes in your veins
And I saw you
[Verse 3]
But that's not an invitation, that's all I get
If this communication, I disconnect
I've seen you, I know you but I don't know how to connect
So I disconnect
[Verse 4]
You always seem to know where to find me
And I'm still here behind you
In the corner of your eye
I'll never really learn how to love you
But I know that I love you
Through the hole in the sky
Where I see you
[Verse 5]
And that's not an invitation, that's all I get
If this communication, I disconnect
I've seen you, I know you but I don't know how to connect
So I disconnect
[Verse 6]
Well this is an invitation, it's not a threat
If you want communication, that's what you get
I'm talkin' and talkin', but I don't know how to connect
And I hold a record for being patient
With your kind of hesitation
I need you, you want me but I don't know how to connect
So I disconnect
I disconnect
