Lyrics

I watched you in your tragic beauty walk beneath my window
Eyes aimed high, but unfocused . . . . sure, you never noticed me
You always wore the same dress; always bore the same
Expression: "it's a loveless world so what's the point of looking?
Let it be . . ." I considered throwing roses--thought I'd maybe
Wave a flag. had to try and force some small connection--
But, there's a snag. it's my confession that I watch you in
My tragic isolation. in my fear . . . that's the way it's been
For years. that's the way it will always be . .
