Tell Me What You See in Me

My ship sails in

On a cloud of broken promises

It's just not true

Not a single word she says

Time will tell

Whether I can change my ways

It might take years

It might even take always.

Tell me what you see in me

And I'll tell you what

I see in you.

Your picture melts

Before my tired eyes

And all it leaves

Is just a trace of paradise

You'll change again

That's what

I've been told

But don't take long

Or I might get too old.

Take it easy

But take it slow

For who knows which way next

That wind will blow

Time goes by

Just as quickly as

I want it to

And I'll make out

Like I never knew.
