Up inside the castle tower
the jester juggling his fire
while kings and queens laugh and scorn him
I sit right outside the throne
my thoughts keeping me alone
I don't know where I'd be without them I see you walk a thinning line
I wonder what may lie inside
the chasm where our minds may meet
I shed my cold dark thoughts
from deep within my broken heart
and search the night on these empty streets
chorus:
I don't know where I am
or where we began
but I know that I'm yours
babe, I'm yours
I sit here on this lonely stoop
getting up to join my group
thinking about the the one who's not in view
well I left them far behind
the dusty trail and out of mind
for with myself I only want to be with you
chorus
There is no time to hesitate
life going to waste away
but if that's the price I have to pay, I do
I've seen the hawks I've seen the doves
I've seen the people lost in love
but I've never seen a girl like you
chorus
