In these headlights you look so small
You’re blinded by fear
You don’t hear me call
Your arms are waving high above your head
All around people laugh was it something you said?
It’s all around you wherever you go
Every thought that you have and the people you know
Conspire to haunt you with empty intent
Hollow words tossed away when I know that they meant something to you
And I can’t let you down and I want you around
Dark clouds hang heavy, low in the sky
Like you they must weep – you still don’t know why
On the outside there’s nowhere to run
So come, take my hand, we’ll wait for the sun to rise
And I can’t let you down and I want you around
