Whatever You Need to Believe

She said you were with me

But oh, how can that be?

I was there

Just here

She said you were wearing clothes

In and out of doors

And you were here

With me

My take is this

You were not with me

You never were lost

You were just ashes

To the sea

She said you were waiting in

A cafe filled with waiting friends

In and out and all at once

Everywhere

Now I wanna know

Do you approve of how I be?

Will you be back?

And can't you just talk

Straight to me?

She's got ringlets in her hair

She smokes stacking rings in the air

Overhead

Overhead

She keeps saying things to me

Things I want so much to be

Please tell me more

Please make me see

She says I must let you go

Through the flame of candlelight

I blow it out

We're all in the dark

My take is this

You were not with me

You just don't exist

Much as I want

As much as I want

You with me
