Just The Thought

Made him my lifeline

I swore he felt so lifelike

But all his talk was posturing

He thought me impossible

If I was older

And maybe slightly wiser

I'd have seen it coming

I wouldn't have done it

You turn me on but I'm all alone

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just the thought

If I were lonely would you care at all

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just the thought

I'm having a hard time

I sit on the shoreline

Watch the waves cresting

Watch the sun setting

If I was colder

And struck by a bit more boredom

I would wish you bad things

I'd wish them everlasting

You turn me on but I'm all alone

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just the thought

If I were lonely would you care at all

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just a thought

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just a thought

Silk and lace

In your crooked

Hollow wake

In the evening I shall pace

And I shall wander in the mornings

Your empty bed

And your winding endless thread

That is glowing fluorescent

Leading me down treacherous courses

I disturb the peace

And ask you to please talk to me

No I didn't sign a treaty

My silence is my pleading and

I am lost

Fighting fever then the frost

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just the thought

It takes just the thought of it

It takes just a thought
