Written April 2000

lyrics

Of the doctor and the devils, neither had it right
To their own loose ends, they served each others' means
And both felt justified

And isn't that it, baby? We know what we know
And we'll rearrange a room of logic just to prove that it's so
Smack a man with a bible, and break his back with guilt
When that don't inspire the right desire
Get off your holy stilts

I don't wanna have to wonder just who you've become
Or gaze upon a ghost of your former self in someone

Yes, I wanna look you in the eye when I see you again
And I wanna see the same smile I saw upon your pretty face back then
Way back when

Yes, I've gotta hand it to you, my baby, I'm in love and not afraid to say
I could look into your eyes and see the rest of my days

Yes, but I wanna look you in the eye when I see you again
And I wanna see the same smile I saw upon your pretty face back then
Way back when

Well I've got a ukelele sittin' on my window sill
And if I have to play it to make you listen, baby I will
Just listen

Yes, 'cause I wanna look you in the eye when I see you again
And I wanna see the same smile I saw upon your pretty face back then
Way back when
