The Lace Songtext
von Benjamin Orr

Just walking through the city
Some need to sort things out
I don′t need to know the pity
I'm feeling for us now
We walked right back together
Back when I hardly knew
Why do the strangest things
Bring back those times with you
Just when we′re getting closer
I'm seeing something new

Just soaking up the city
Drifting the days away
Searching through crowds of people
The face that got away
We talked at times together
Put all my dreams on you
You let me down somehow
And now I see where to


Turns out my best just wasn't good enough for you
You couldn′t recognize a loss in the world
I want to lose yourself
You couldn′t feel the pull
Everything just ends up so sad
Too bad
I gave it what I did

Just walking through the city

Drifting the days away
Searching through crowds of people
The face that got away

Keep telling me it's nothing
When I would want to stay
How could I get to you
When you were never there
We walked right back together
Back when I hardly knew
Why do the strangest things
Bring back those times with you
Just when we′re getting closer
I'm seeing something new

You couldn′t recognize a loss in the world
So bad
