"Didn't Feel Lonely 'Til I Thought Of You"

Ayers

Woke up this morning, I went out on the street
Sniffed a few flowers then I went back to sleep
My head was cloudy but the sky was blue
And I didn't feel lonely till I thought of you
Didn't feel lonely till I thought of you
Didn't feel lonely till I thought of you.

Later that evening I knocked on your door
Asked how you're feeling, you said you weren't sure
Took off your costume and you lay on the bed
And I came down beside you with the moon in my head
Came down beside you with the moon in my head
Came down beside you with the moon in my head.

I whispered nothing sweetly in your ear
I played the music that you like to hear
I held you tightly but you slipped right through
And I was left holding someone but I didn't know who
I was left holding someone but I didn't know who
Left holding someone but I didn't know who.

Maybe I'm crazy and I'm lost in a dream
Brothers and sisters, you know what I mean
You leave things open you get lost in the space
And you have to keep running to keep out of this race
You have to keep running to keep out of this race
You have to keep running to keep out of this race.
