Who Are You

Caroline Spence


I take comfort in my silence
In an empty house
In leaving town
I take comfort in knowing
It's not my time yet
But then you show up

Have I been betting on the wrong cards my whole life?
Trying to make a fire with the rain outside?
Hiding behind the line between black and white?
You got me asking questions

Asking who are you?
Who could know me
But my only one?
Oh, who are you?

I don't take kindly
When you remind me
That I should lighten up
Show myself a little love
I don't take kindly
To the way you can find me
When I'm trying to hide
And give up the fight

I'd hear my chains rattle and blame it on a ghost
Thought I'd was running wild, but I never let go
And honey, how the hell did you know?
Got me asking questions

Asking who are you?
And who could know me
But my only one?
Oh, who are you?

And who could slow me down
But my only one?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
