Have I ever lost your way? Have I ever left you Elaine? Have I ever called and stayed? Why would I now? There were times I loathe your name There were times I laid on plain There were times I brought on shame Why would I now? But I will never be your familiar soul and I will never see your interior whole But have I ever stood back and watched you fall? Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around? Why would I now? Have I ever stood you wrong? Have I ever strung you along? Have I ever got you alone? Why would I now? There were times I go through the walls There were times I broke through it all There were times it felt so hard, Why would I now? But I will never be your familiar soul and I will never see your interior whole But have I ever stood back and watched you fall? Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around? Why would I now? Though the years they may unbreak you How it all really unmade you land down Why would I now? Remember when it all went dark Remember when it first ran apart Remember how I held my marks So wouldn't I now? But I will never be your familiar soul and I will never see your interior whole But have I ever stood back and watched you fall? Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around? Why would I now?
