We tied these ties With strands of purest white and blue We gave our days of brightest flashing light in you We'd hide our lives To keep their eyes from knowing truth Am I losing touch With the hands that always held me on A change In shame to fit the situation The same last name but there is no relation Am I losing touch With the hands that always held me on I remember things you've said I never knew what you meant I turned my face away And let you separate the claim Between the night and days These thoughts are keeping me awake I've noticed lately I can't see clear And I speak too plainly Does it take the taste away Your life's succession Should not be phased All your possessions Will be a mound Of the money that you've made Am I losing touch With the hands that always held me on I have got so much to say I can't seem to find a way To make my face display what it has always meant to say Between the night and day These thoughts are keeping me awake All my dreams aren't what they seem All my dreams aren't what they seem I remember things you've said I never knew what you meant I have got so much to say I can't seem to find a way To make my face display What it has always meant to say These thoughts are keeping me awake
