locked outside (lyrics)

i stayed hidden

by your restless eye

that looked around and around

but never right through

so I left my body

right there

by your side

for you to hold 

but not know

for me to give

but not show

and when I returned

I found the time we could have shared

had passed

had passed

us by.

you were waiting.

you were waiting.

you were waiting

but I was locked outside.

You had said

don't feel too much

you had said don't fall too hard

let's merge our bodies

but keep our hearts far apart

so I shut my eyes 

so I couldn't see

anything of you

pouring into me

and I left my body

so I couldn't feel

you there

or gone

you there or gone

you were waiting

you were waiting

for me to arrive

but I was locked outside
