Circles Songtext

von Pentimento

I'm just a voice on the phone.
You're just a face in a frame.
So it's no surprise to see the shape you take.
You're so fragile. You're so full of blame.
But I don't blame you.

All those promises that you had made to keep,
I guess you'll keep eventually, to anyone but me.
Your words and your ways are two completely different things.

There's so much truth in all our humor, and so much humor in our truth.
So I'm laughing at all the things that I thought I knew.
I thought I knew you.

All those promises that you had made to keep,
I guess you'll keep eventually to anyone but me.
Your words and your ways are two completely different things.

But could you imagine what would happen if we were to stay still
And tell our breath just to exhale our innocence?
The tide goes in, the tide goes out.
We're growing up to grow apart.

All those promises that you had made to keep,
I guess you'll keep eventually to anyone but me.
Your words and your ways are two completely different things.

The tide goes in. The tide goes out.
(Like how I was there when you needed me but you just couldn't do the same)
We're growing up to grow apart.
