"Life is the art of drawing without an eraser." -- John W. Gardener


and how would you feel if i told you
i wrote a song about you?
i wrote a song about you,
but no, you can't hear.

and how would you feel if i told you
that i could get on without you?
that i could get on without you
but you'd die without me near.

so i hope
you will
stay safe
because i know
many wait
to lead you astray
and i will be with you in your hopes and dreams and fears
if not for all the years
then tonight.

well i wrote a song about you
but you wouldn't want to hear it
it's about your shortcomings
so no, you can't hear.

and i could get on without you
i'd be rather good at it
you would never be good at it
yes, you'd die without me near

so i hope
you will
stay safe
because i know
many wait
to lead you astray
and i will be with you in your hopes and dreams and fears
if not for all the years
then tonight.

and love is ne'er a listener
but instead a way of thinking
and i've a way of blinking
when the truth passes me by, and I
will never get home tonight,
for i know that i'm blind,
but i swear you will,
I swear you will.

so i hope
you will
stay safe
because i know
many wait
to lead you astray
and i will be with you in your hopes and dreams and fears
if not for all the years
then tonight.

but truth is that i'm a liar
cuz without you i'd be lost
without you i'd be lost
in my own tragic past

yes truth is i'm a liar
for though i wrote a song about you
i would be lost without you
but i am found at last.
