You nearly drowned, I nearly saved you
You came back to my house last night
As a ghost
You came back to explore the issues
To explore the issues
We should have left alone

And I no longer want to hurt you
No longer want to see you dissolve into the night
Just as long as when you're going
When you're going
You can give me back my peace of mind
Peace of mind

You see,
The trouble with me is that I'm not sad

The lord does not come to the rescue
You can sit here every night
Be contemplating on the formation of the stars
But here you are
Alone on Earth
And there are a million stars out there
You could have had it all
You should have had it all
And I shouldn't care

You see,
The trouble with me is that I'm not sad

And there are the times when the quiet settles in
And I see messages in shadows on the walls
And though I couldn't see it all
I've seen your face
Forgiving as your eyes can be
They still chase sleep away from me
Until the morning comes and sets me free
Until the morning comes and sets me free

You see,
The trouble with me is that I'm not sad

So hope is gone
And there is nothing left in the bottle
I just throw it in the sea
And hope somebody rescues it before me
When I close my eyes
I can't almost remember anything
No,
I can't see that clearly anymore

You see,
The trouble with me is that I'm not sad

You nearly drowned, I nearly saved you
