You could spend a lifetime all alone Looking for the closest thing to home But you'll never know if you don't try To believe the quiet child inside Once you were free Was it just me Who believed in a picture that you always carried with ya To be close to me You would pretend To forget the end Of the same tired story 'cause you liked to hear me tell it again And again You could spend a lifetime all alone Looking for the closest thing to home But you'll never know if you don't try To believe the quiet child inside Clever and kind You left that behind For a safe social circle that would lead you to the head of the line In good time But i can see signs The clues left behind Just a hint of affection that eluded my detection alright That's alright You could spend a lifetime all alone Looking for the closest thing to home But you'll never know if you don't try To believe the quiet child inside
