Turn Your Head Slowly

written 2007

Verse 1:
you turn your head slowly
I turn away
this movement is only
in place of what I would say
what I would say

Verse 2:
you turn to the window what do you see
your thoughts I can't follow
from what I've come to be
what I've come to be

Refrain:
sometimes you laugh and it suddenly seems
as if all of the conflict has been bad dreams
but you and I have changed somehow
and we can't ignore who we are right now

Verse 3:
you turn your eyes to me
I meet your gaze
tears well up briefly
but nothing between us stays
but nothing between us stays

Refrain.

Verse 4:
you turn your head slowly
I turn away
