Sign of the Times

SONG 43...what is the magic number????
____________________________________________________________________
NEVER GO AWAY

I watched you cross the sidewalk
Those calculated steps
To lean up against the lamppost
And invade my loneliness
Your not-so-subtle gestures
And how you looked amazed
That I didn’t catch what was behind your stare
Until I’d walked away

Aching that I left too quick
You have haunted every moment since

**CHORUS**
Oh…oh…you never go away
Oh…oh…you never go away
Oh…oh…I can’t make you go away
Oh…oh…cause you never go away

(5 minutes is all I need to tell you what you’ve done to me)

I’m intrigued by darkness
By what my eyes can’t see
So it’s true if this were simple
There would be no mystery
Yet, it’s dangerous to want you
Cause that makes me feel detained
This padded cell is growing smaller
Each and every day

When you come back, I'll feel better I am sure
Haunted til the moment you return

**Chorus**

(One smile was all it took…baited, now I’m on your hook)

I need light
I…dream in black in white
I am blind
I…I have lost my sight

Until today I never had the
Opportunity
To catch you unaware
And show you that I bleed
Day fades into night
And then rolls into the next day
But this afternoon
You might come and dig me from this grave

Patience is what I’ve always lacked the most
But I’ve been patiently haunted by your ghost

**Chorus**

You never go away...
You never go away...
