Paroles de Faces

One, two, three, one, two, three Eyes and ears open to whom I may meet Questions and answers, smile and repeat Tattoos form stories we all can endear But I'd much rather hear what you love and you fear A personal list caused by one little kiss A tear from a loved one, a glare to a fist All have their endings and I've had my share It's too bad I sing to repair Sometimes I walk just to see Who passes me by, passes me by Faces and places they go Become things I write, things that I write Sometimes I feel like a ghost Who longs for a life, longs for a life again But then I remember the faces That put out my light, the faces that lied And then I know why An outfit that falls by the waist A plan in it's place My heart won it's very first race Held, but I feel out of touch Enough is enough Every why needs a what And every what needs a Who, what, where, why is it I sit by quiet while lives live their lows And the highs are all blown by the wind If you sing from within Tears roll down your chin and you feel it again Sometimes I walk just to see Who passes me by, passes me by Faces and places they go Become things I write, things that I write Sometimes I feel like a ghost Who longs for a life, longs for a life again But then I remember the faces That put out my light, the faces that lied And then I know why Sometimes I walk just to see Who passes me by, passes me by Faces and places I've lost All left behind, frozen in time
