lyrics

I drove your car to the bay
might have been yesterday
or the day before.

I thought it would be sweet,
that things would be complete
if you were there in the passenger seat.

Forget the valentine thing
that is not why I sing for you.
I don't want to hang
just want to be the yang
for your yin.

I sat beneath a tree
I dreamt you dreamt of me
and we were holding hands.

I dreamt that just maybe
one day it would not be
such a trauma to be your man.

And if by chance I should fall.
It's because I I had no say in it
I never even prayed for it.
It's because I had no say in it at all.

Perhaps when you are nearer
things will be a little clearer
and I will understand.

I haven't lost the plot
I guess I just forgot.
Spilled a little coffee on the plans.
