A Feeling That Never Came

It's funny how it happened

How fast your world can change

It's funny how you tricked me

And how you keep fooling yourself

It's funny how I believed you then

When you said we all try our best

I loved you, I did, but I've put that notion to rest

It's all a shifting perspective

A different point of view

Can still picture the perfect image of you

I go back there time and time again

Looks I stole when you weren't watching

I stood at the corner, solemn in the rain

Waiting for something, a feeling that never came

Now I keep looking over my shoulder

Like somehow you'd still be around

I'm stuck in my own thoughts

Keep walking the streets of this town

What scares me most is this ghost of you and me

Is it all in my head?

I loved you, I did, but now that doesn't matter

It's all a shifting perspective

A different point of view

Can still rewrite the story if I wanted to

I go back there time and time again

Looks I stole when you weren't watching

I stood at the corner, solemn in the rain

Waiting for something, a feeling that never came

I got too drunk and embarrassed myself

Thought I'd be enough if I was someone else

Kissed in the sweet sweltering heat

On Bowery or maybe Delancey Street

Got kicked out of the bar and we headed west

I loved you, I did, but I've put that all to rest

Stood at the corner, solemn in the rain

Waiting for something, a feeling that never came

Waiting for anything, a feeling that never came

Waiting for something, a feeling that never came
