Ray, as of today, I can't say things will ever be the same
And that could be a shame
'Cause though I think I know another lonely exile when I see one
And you appear to be one
Still...
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cause I oughta be there
Ray, what can I say?
You don't know me, and it's just wishful thinking to keep myself from sinking
And hence, no evidence to support any theory I have handy
If you could understand me
And so...
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cause I oughta be there
'Cause you're as bad off as me...
Ray, can we repay ourselves for days that we've lost through indecision
With one of recoginition?
If so, then here I go, 'cause some things you know...
And some you just believe in
And hope it comes out even
I...
I'm playing it down 'cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cause I oughta be there
