Oblique


And I bet you wonder why
I can‘t look you in the eye
When I see you sometimes at the show....
And I always wonder how
you can keep your head about
As we pass you smile at me
Though I always turn away
I‘m trying to repay
All those smiles that I never return
Now the days they seem so long
Because I‘m all alone
It makes me wonder how it could ever have come to
Such a decision as this

She says it‘s not because of you
There‘s nothing you can say or do
To make me change my mind this time
I‘m sure the truth is only one question away
Save it for another day.
