You Win

I watch the stars ll the dusks of late July
And try in vain to understand the things that make you cry Could be aurora in your living room
But you’d look away and gaze upon a distant moon
Sometimes when you’re right beside me you’re a million miles away
Morning light comes shining in our room
And we nestle just like twins inside a mother’s womb Then we cruise along a wet highway
And an old song steals you much too far away from me
Sometimes when you’re right beside me I can’t even tell I wonder if your world has room for me as well
I’ve come a long way to be with you I’ve survived a storm of sacri ce
To walk together through the doorways Kept locked to lesser loves gone by Will you still give me resistance
Will you close me out again And again you win
I’d stop the world if the spinning made you ill
You say you’d do the same for me but I don’t think you will
But you still give me resistance And you close me out again And again you win
