unsaid

Left my home and a best friend The places I could hide For a city of six-lane highways And lots of traffic lights But I'm tryin' to grow roots here Keep my feet on the ground But, sirens swim and circle The shore that I have found Well, it's only been a few months And I can't tell the difference Was I happy in the quiet? All the open-handed distance From the people and their parties Where no one really talks Distractin' from the thought of you And all those late night walks 'Cause if I don't, call you up Then I don't have to feel down And if I don't, say I miss you Then you never have to be around If I don't, say I love you Then you don't have to love me See how simple, the unsaid keeps things? And Lucy gave me a readin' King of Cups and Queen of Wands And in the middle, a perfect picture Of everythin' I want And I laugh 'cause it makes sense But somethin' leaves me feelin' wrong I know you're not a perfect picture But my heart, it won't shut up 'Cause if I don't, call you up Then I don't have to feel down And if I don't, say I miss you Then you never have to be around If I don't, say I love you Then you don't have to love me See how simple, the unsaid
