So I walk another mile down this crooked road
Clouds rolling in Lord it's getting cold
Feeling fine
Feel lost feeling blue tonight
But my only friend is Mr. Moonlight
Then I see you girl lost in your book of poems
You're in another world
I should leave you alone
My heart races on I try and hold it back

But like a runaway train I'm about to jump the tracks
Now you say you need a friend
I swear to you if that's what you need
That's what I'll be
But I hope this never ends
I feel there's something more the way
You look at me

And that's all I need to know
I won't question why, don't need a reason
We can take our time we can take it real slow
When I see it in your eyes
That's all I need to know

Now we're talking 'bout angels that have lost their wings
This melancholy world and the nature of things
But then there's only silence when your eyes meet mine

Reciting from your black book you were like some wounded bird
I tried to catch your heart as it fell between your words
You tore out one page and let it blow away
Then you disappeared into your world
It's a place I just can't stay

You say you need a friend
I swear to you if that's what you need
That's what I'll be
But I hope this never ends
I feel there's something more the way
You look at me

And that's all I need to know
I won't question why, don't need a reason
We can take our time we can take it real slow
When I see it in your eyes
That's all I need to know

All I need to know
I won't question why, don't need a reason
We can take our time we can take it real slow
When I see it in your eyes
That's all I need to know
