From the recording If Not Now, When
Lyrics
It’s funny how the difference in words can be the one thing holding you back. We all know how to say what we want but never know how or when to react.
Oh, how he would say he wanted the feeling again, but then finally came the day.
He had a chance at filling the stares in the space between them.
It’s funny how the difference in mind can be the first thing his planning can lack. But he’ll never know how to break out of his cell and be the first one on the attack.
Oh, how we would say he should talk to one of the good friends, and then finally came the day. He took a step and jumped into the space between them.
Locking eyes in what’s becoming a memory, and all he does is everything embarrassing.
Walking home alone, if only she had known.
It’s funny how we want what we crave but then we want the things we can’t have. It’s over now. It’s time to behave. Don’t let them step in on your behalf.
Oh, I heard you say, "Don’t wait to speak until the end." But, I somehow gave it away. The mystery of lust that fills the space between them
Locking eyes in what’s becoming a memory, and all he does is everything embarrassing.
Walking home alone, if only she had known.
The space between them is not that small Flying in to catch her fall. He’ll never make the move at all. He’s living a bad dream. A gentle kiss beneath the lights. A subtle touch to feel alright and hold each other through the night. It's nothing like what it seems.
